Superlative Arms Titanium Adjustable Bleed Off Gas Block .750" - Set Screw, Dark DLC

This product is a Charlie's staff favorite. 

A well tuned weapon will perform better and offer a more pleasant shooting experience. The Superlative Arms adjustable gas block can function as both a traditional restrictive style or a patented "Bleed Off" type. By reducing the pressure entering a direct impingement gas system, the weapon can be run cleaner and smoother with less wear on parts and reduced gas block back to the shooter. Eliminating excess gas can also help keep the weapon cooler and reduce felt recoil by delaying bolt unlock and slowing the BCG. The Bleed Off method of gas adjustment also requires less maintenance than typical restrictive tuning. A tuned gas system is a must for SBRs, suppressed weapons, and competition firearms with specialized parts such as lightweight bolt carrier groups.

Features:

• The pressure used in the block is reduced only to the amount required to drive the bolt carrier. The remaining gas / pressure are bled out of the block allowing the system to run much cleaner and cooler. 
• Reduction of felt recoil.
• Patented adjustment detent is located outside the block and therefore no contamination.
• The gas adjustment screw does not restrict the gas flow; therefore, there is no erosion or seizing of the screw / no loss of detent due to carbon build up.  Although it is removable, we have added a safety mechanism, which stops you from unintentionally backing the screw all the way out.
• When using SBR’s and / or suppressors, the bleed off port allows the excessive pressure to be exhausted out of the block reducing blow back.         

This variant is made of titanium instead of the standard model's stainless steel construction. Titanium has several advantages when used in firearms. The most obvious upon comparison is titanium's weight, or lack there of, which can be over 40% lighter than steel. Titanium has an incredible strength to weight ratio. Titanium is also very corrosion resistant, often used in harsh environments. An often overlooked benefit is titanium's low coefficient of thermal expansion, which translates to holding dimensions better than steel under a heat load. Less expansion means lower potential for gas leakage as the gas block heats up under sustained fire.
