Ares 18" Black Nitride
Black Nitride: This finishing process is a surface conversion process in
place of industrial hard chrome and is therefore inherently free from nodules,
flaking, pits, stripping, or anode burrs. The process results in chemical and
structural composition changes that can be described as a case hardening to a
depth of 0.005� of the alloy leading to increased surface hardness, lower
coefficient of friction, enhanced surface lubricity, improved running wear
performance, increased sliding wear resistance, enhanced corrosion resistance
and heat resistance over industrial hard chrome. The process is a surface
conversion and does not add material to the internal dimension of the bore.
With hard chrome, the bore must be manufactured oversized or honed and
electro-polished to make the interior dimension oversized making room for the
chrome plating. This plating is inconsistent which is the reason sniper or
target barrels are typically not chromed. It has proven superior as a surface
finish to phosphate with oxidization when subjected to MIL-STD-810f salt
fog/spray testing and is a scratch resistant flat black finish.
Ares Effin-A MKII 5.56 Compensator
Effin-A Compensator 5.56 MKII is designed to allow users the ability to adjust the manner in which
the gas exits from the weapon.
The MKII Compensator features 8
columns and 3 rows of exit ports that can be either opened or closed
through the very simple use of set screws.
The exit ports are not
threaded completely through to eliminate the possibility of the screw
being over turned into the chamber. This feature also allows the screw
to "bottom out" increasing tightness and ensuring that it will not work
itself out under the pressure of the gasses being released by the
weapon.
The Effin-A Compensator 5.56 MKII weighs in at only 2.5 ozs; which is
half the weight of the previous version.
Allen Key is included.
