Backup Tactical Thread Protector 1/2x28 Flag Design – AR-15 & .223/5.56 Rifles

The Backup Tactical Thread Protector shields your rifle's muzzle threads from damage, dirt, and corrosion when a muzzle device isn't installed. Featuring a distinctive flag design, this protector ensures your 1/2x28 threads remain clean and undamaged during transport, storage, or cleaning sessions. Thread protectors prevent cross-threading and make future muzzle device installation smoother by preserving thread integrity.

Machined to fit standard 1/2x28 threads found on most AR-15 barrels and .223/5.56 rifles. The flag relief cuts provide wrench flats for easy hand-tightening and removal without marring. Constructed from durable steel with a protective finish. Hand-tighten only—do not use thread locker or apply excessive torque, as thread protectors are meant to be temporary covers, not permanent installations.
