| I have a SiCo hybrid and using a keymo. If I read right, 2 drops of rocksett or more? Is there enough to do 2 flash hiders in the small little vial tube pack from aac? |

Well my game plan is torque it until I figure out my shin stack height at torque, then remove and rocksett the threads at torque so the index is top dead center.
I ordered a new bottle as I have a few to do, but my main concern is if I ever have to take the muzzle device off so I'm glad 2 drops is happy for the setup. |

Not to hijack - but how do you get a mount off once it has been rocksett'd to hell? Have a KAC nt4 mount that needs to come off and I'm pretty sure I used almost half the little bottle it came with.  |

thats kind of contrary to what i hear. Rocksett is opposite of locktite. Soak it in water overnight. Rocksett is water soluble where as heat doesnt touch it but then again ive never tried, just what i hear It's there to keep it from backing off on its own, not to stop you from removing it. I've watched a guy blowtorch one that was put on before at an old gunshop that is now closed.

Following the proper torque specs. |

And what exactly is the proper torque spec? I've seen 15-20 ft-lbs mentioned often but that doesn't say if that with a crush washer, peel washer or in the case of my ASR FH, no washer? Does it vary per device installed? ~ 35 ft-lbs for 7.62 muzzle devices. Don't use a crush washer for a QD suppressor mount muzzle device. Bad juju-magumbo. |

If you can't get it off with a wrench and brute force, you'll need to heat it. Quoted:

This is one of those instances where practical knowledge (doing) far outweighs theoretical knowledge (reading/listening). Anyone who has ever tried to remove a 51T from a factory built AAC upper can relate. Water by itself didn't work, heat didn't work, brute force just broke the extension pin. Ended up heating it to about 200F, then soaking it in water, using the capillary action to suck the water in, is what got it finally off. One drop is all I ever use after cleaning the threads with contact cleaner. |

Arfcom loves pictures. The rifle with the Dead air fh on it. The excitement is building to bring home the can and see how she looks and feels

| Use a reaction Rod in a vice, put a cleaning patch between the wrench and device flats to keep it tight then add elbow grease torque. If it still won't move hit the wrench with a deadblow hammer and it should break free. That's always worked for me. Two drops of rocksett is more than enough. |

Well, I'm in love with the DEad air key-mo. This weekend is going to be fun. First rifle can... I know it won't be quiet but it's been a long wait and I'm excited to throw it on the slr107 next
