Dair Rxd R-Series Flash Hider Front Cap 5.56

The Dead Air Armament RXD R-Series Flash Hider Front Cap for 5.56 is a precision-engineered muzzle component designed to tame flash while maintaining easy field serviceability. Built from 17-4PH stainless steel and finished in durable black nitride, this front cap uses a 6-tine design to break up and reduce muzzle flash—critical for maintaining situational awareness during low-light shooting or keeping your position concealed in tactical scenarios. At just 0.71 ounces and 0.53 inches in total length, it adds minimal bulk to your suppressor setup while delivering measurable flash signature reduction.

What sets the RXD R-Series front cap apart is its commitment to real-world usability. Dead Air designed this component for removal and replacement with standard hardware store tools—a 11/16 socket or open-ended wrench will do the job. No proprietary wrenches, no guesswork: swap it out at the bench or in the field without special equipment. The 1.25-inch diameter and .223/5.56mm bore maintain compatibility with standard AR platform barrels and ammunition.

This front cap integrates seamlessly with Dead Air's ecosystem, including the Ruger x Dead Air RXD30Ti silencer and all R-series front cap threaded suppressors, plus the PYRO 2.0. If you're running a suppressed 5.56 rifle and want to minimize signature while keeping maintenance simple and field-expedient, the RXD R-Series delivers both performance and practicality.
