I know the ts button can be taken apart to be repaired can the same be done to the tb? My button is sticking and I would like to try to find the cause. Thanks for any help
Can the GGTB button be taken apart?

Well my button is slightly different then the one shown in the button videos, the lock ring doesn't appear to be adjustable. It also looks quite a bit shorter so I could see how a ts button might work in a tb but I don't think the tb button would reach the center pin on a ts. Button total length is 9/16 of an inch. In august I will try it though for giggles
Yup that's it my button is tight so I will have to wait till I can find a second pair of needle nose pliers to pull it appart.
....be careful using pliers; one slip can do a lot of damage.
JB Quik an old 901 atty on the button top and an old 510 atty to the plunger. Let set for 30 min and then twist the attys and it unscrews. The JBQ that's left on the button is easy to scrape off with a fingernail.
Works with any of the GG buttons
Probably just needs a good cleaning. Dirt, ejuice, etc gets into the button tube and can cause it to stick. Clean with alcohol and a q-tip, dry, reassemble (hand tighten only), and test it out before putting it back into the tube. While you have it apart it's a good opportunity to check the spring to make sure it's in good shape. A replacement is CHEAP. A drop of Noalox on the plunger is a good idea.
Thanks for the replies got it apart finally. There was a bunch of gunk around the button and now seems to be working perfectly although I am thinking about buying some magnets for it.
