Description
R1 Tactical AR Ultralight Aluminum QD End Plate and Castle Nut – Black Anodized
The R1 Tactical Ultralight Aluminum Quick Detach End Plate and Castle Nut set is precision machined from 7075-T6 Aluminum with a Mil-Spec Type 3 Class II hard coat anodized finish that mounts securely to any Mil-Spec (1.148″) buffer tube using a standard 3-lug A4 style castle nut wrench. The lightweight aluminum design reduces overall weight by over 1/2 oz making it one of the lightest combo sets on the market. The set’s matching machined castle cuts will complement any AR build providing a unique look at an incredible value.
7075-T6 aluminum is one of the strongest aluminum alloys available because of its high strength-to-weight ratio and improved strength over 6061 alloys.
