Dead Air DA130 Xeno 3-Prong Flash Hider Black Nitride 4140 HT Alloy Steel 5/8"x24 Threads 1.96" OAL 9mm
The Dead Air Xeno 3-Prong Flash Hider is a compact muzzle device engineered for 9mm platforms seeking reliable suppressor mounting without sacrificing zero shift or durability. Built from black-nitrided 4140 steel, this 5/8x24-threaded flash hider combines flash reduction with Dead Air's proven Xeno mounting interface—designed so your suppressor reinstalls at the same point of aim, shot after shot. Whether you're running a short-barreled 9mm with hot ammunition or planning a precision-focused rifle, the Xeno system delivers the consistency and ruggedness you need on the firing line or in the field.
Dead Air engineered the Xeno 3-prong flash hider to work standalone or—more powerfully—as the anchor point for a Xeno Adapter-equipped suppressor. The compact 1.96-inch length keeps your rifle profile trim and future-proofs your setup against evolving suppressor designs. The prongs themselves are detuned, so they won't vibrate or rattle during heavy use. Because the forward geometry is optimized to resist carbon and copper buildup, your suppressor disassembles and remounts cleanly even after hundreds of rounds, with zero guesswork about return to zero.
The nitrided 4140 steel finish is the real workhorse here. Unlike uncoated 17-4 alternatives, black nitride resists corrosion, won't gall your threads, and makes cleanup far less likely to damage the mounting surfaces. The flash hider and adapter thread together with left-handed threads—a detail that prevents the adapter from unthreading when you remove your suppressor and lets you verify your mount is tight during installation. Both components feature generous tooling flats, so you can apply torque even with a suppressor fully installed, a real advantage if you run suppressed for extended sessions without disassembly.
For shooters who demand repeatability and durability in a minimal package, the Dead Air Xeno 3-Prong Flash Hider on 9mm is the foundation of a serious suppressor platform.
