Suppressor Wrap

[C Ward]

I'll see if Zak still has the pictures of the cover that we melted on purpose . Once the outer nylon goes shiny its too hot and it has started to fail . This happens long before you see any distortion in the material .
Thats why you have to be able to remove the cover to allow the trapped heat to escape .

Like I said in my last post the covers are designed around a precision rifle concept not a high volume carbine application .

C Ward, how many rounds and in what time frame did it take to reach the melting point on the TAB that you heated up on purpose. Just curious.

The outer cover got shiny at about 60ish and turned black at about 100 or so . Its been 5 or so years so Its not fresh any more . We were shooting as fast as you could make hits on a C zone at about 200 yards , about one round every 2 seconds or so . We new goin in what the end result was goin to be and was done pretty much out of boredom .

well, sounds like I shouldn't have to worry about it then, while shooting prairie rats. We get the barrels pretty hot sometimes, but for the most part, it's just common sense to switch guns before reaching that critical "hot" point as too avoid barrel damage.
