Dead Air Direct Thread Mount w/HUB Compatible Products M18x1
The Dead Air Direct Thread Mount w/HUB Compatible Products M18x1 is a precision fixed adapter that bridges your HUB-compatible suppressor to firearms threaded in M18x1. If you're running a Dead Air Nomad, Primal, or another silencer built around Dead Air's HUB interface, this direct-thread insert lets you unlock compatibility with host guns you might otherwise leave behind. It's the kind of solution that makes a versatile suppressor system actually versatile—one HUB-compatible can, multiple firearms, no hassle.
Built from 4140 heat-treated alloy steel and finished in QPQ black nitride, this mount is engineered to last through years of attachment cycles and thermal stress. The M18x1 thread pitch is common on European and certain precision rifle platforms, making this insert particularly valuable if your gun collection crosses continental lines. At just 1.92 ounces and 0.765 inches long, it adds minimal length to your overall package while delivering the rock-solid interface Dead Air's HUB system is known for.
Dead Air designed the HUB ecosystem specifically to simplify multi-gun suppressor ownership. Rather than buying separate silencers for each firearm, you buy adapters. This M18x1 direct-thread mount is part of that strategy—it's a small, durable piece that transforms a suppressor into a tool that fits your gun, not the other way around.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will this mount work with my Dead Air Nomad or Primal?
Yes. The M18x1 direct-thread mount features Dead Air's standard 1 3/8-24 HUB interface, making it compatible with any HUB-equipped silencer, including the Nomad, Primal, and other Dead Air suppressors built on that platform.
What firearms use M18x1 threading?
M18x1 is a metric thread pitch found on many European rifles and some precision bolt-action platforms. Check your barrel or muzzle brake to confirm your firearm is threaded M18x1 before ordering.
Is this a permanent or removable mount?
This is a fixed direct-thread mount. It attaches to your firearm's muzzle and remains in place. You remove and reattach the suppressor via the HUB interface as needed.
How much length does this add to my gun?
The M18x1 mount itself is 0.765 inches long, so the total length increase depends on your suppressor. The Nomad and Primal, for example, would then attach to this base via the HUB connection.
