Anyone have a source for 1.245" diameter cones?  I am thinking I could improve my suppressor performance by using 60 degree cones versus spacers as I have now.  The place I originally purchased from exited the business as one may imagine. Form 1 already approved in July!

Thanks!

Alternatively, I would consider trying to form my aluminum milled baffles/cups but I don't want to ruin them...  Anyone have experience with this?

I'm almost done with my can.  Just got it back from being cerakoated.  I chose their hi-temp Tactical Gray color.  Now I have a few questions.

I am using a DM titanium 7.5" long 1.5" O.D. tube with 1.375" I.D.
DM titanium griffen adapter
DM titanium stepped coned end cap
I also have a 4" chunk of the DM titanium spacer material on hand.

My plan was to build a suppressor for shooting .308 out of a ar10, .308 bolt action, 8.5" 300blk ar15, and a 5.56 ar15.

I am planning on buying the Griffen 2 chamber brake for the 7.62 guns and the flash comp for the 5.56 guns.

I read a lot of these threads already and my question is on baffles.

I will be using titanium cones from zmachineworks in their 1.372" diameter.  From what I have read, it looks like I will need about a 2.4" spacer for my blast chamber.  The cones have a .67" skirt.  Without having the can in front of me to measure the endcaps and inner tube length,  it looks like I will be able to only fit 6 cones in the can and I will have to find a way to get rid of as much as .2" of excess play inside.  Should I be using something else for the first blast baffle?  Is this thing going to hold up to anything the guns I have listed will send out?  Shoild I go to a minimalist brake so I can add an extra baffle? Should I do the radial shaped or the normal cone shaped baffles from zmachine?

I've been using AR10 barrel nut shims to tighten up the baffle stack. They fit perfect in 1.5" OD tubes with a ID around 1.360"

When I was winding down my job before the effective last day, I put everything into a MicroSoft OneNote document and zipped it up.
Hopefully, this torrent works. Never created a torrent before. Here is the 'Magnet URI.

So I am new to this thread but I’ve read for a few hours now for knowlege... I know what I’m wanting to do might be received poorly by y’all but I really want to replicate the knights armament NT4 QDSS Suppressor. I have already used CAD programs and designed a model that would work but need some insight on constructing the blast baffles out of stainless rather than inconel like in the actual can. This will have to be a welded can so I need to make it out of baffles that will have some decent longevity on a 10.5” SBR. Thanks and I’m looking forward to sharing my progress on this thread in the future.

Ronin Pro solvent trap kit. The wait for the form 1 was about 11 months. They don't make solvent traps anymore.
