| I installed 2 AAC 51 tooth flash hiders on a couple of builds. I noticed that the rocksett that came with it was a thick substance almost gel like. Is that the way they all come? |

Quoted:
FWIW, I haven't been using rocksett on my 51T FHs and haven't had any problems with them coming loose. I just torque the FHs down. Rocksett is optional. If you're actually using the flash hider as a suppressor mount, then use it. If not, then it's not completely necessary. |

I've had a lot of rounds downrange with suppressors mounted without rocksett. |

I'm sure you do. I'd use it on a suppressed application, myself. Can't hurt. Nothing wrong with a little extra insurance. Suppressors build and hold a LOT of heat and I've had many things loosen when exposed to prolonged high temperatures. I'd hate to destroy a suppressor because I was too lazy to follow the manufacturer's instructions. |

If you don't use the rocksett do you use a crush washer with the aac hider? No crush washer. I know they don't need to be timed, but I used shims to time my 51T Blackout, anyway, since it has an AAC logo at the 12:00 position, and what looks like a lot number at the 6:00 position. Looks more "finished" this way. |
