How to break in and maintain your KeyMo mounting system

[@dereklamb1835]

I did not realize this was necessary, I have just been throwing them on and they have been great on 5.56 and 300Blk, great stuff

[@mattgill69]

Yea same with me, I immediately got worried after seeing the title of this video. Im like oh F I haven’t done any of this

[@acidicfate]

I found that using Permatex Purple Ceramic Extreme brake lube is the absolute best for the adapters. It's rated to 3000F, slick as hell, wont corrode and doesn't wash out at those rainy day comps

[@Eastbaydxt]

do you put this on the threads of the hub adapter or just the detent ring?

[@acidicfate]

@@Eastbaydxt Just the threads

[@joemiller410]

@@acidicfate You're talking about the threads being exposed @ 1:58 right? When he's taking off the 3 parts? Not the threads that go into the can itself? Thanks!

[@juncho1977]

I shot my Nomad on an AR10 type rifle for nearly 200 rounds and neither the suppressor or KeyMo adapter came loose. Awesome mount and considered by many to be the best in the industry! 😁👍

Great product so far.... I actually just did an install video for the Keymo on my .300 blackout... Thanks for sharing.

[@ar15hitman]

I am actually having that issue with the worn detent ring on my Keymo adapter so this was very informative. I will be emailing Dead Air to address this. Thanks for uploading this video. 👍

[@scoobarsteve7948]

Same here, they said they’re out of stock on detent rings but will ship one out asap, got a durable suppressor but I guess the keymo part is something that will fail much sooner?

[@showstaz]

They’ll take care of you. I had the same wear problem and they made it right as soon as they got some in stock

[@CountryboyBOB]

My keymo didn’t make clicking sound Dead Air said it didn’t matter and apparently it’s not something they warranty .

[@TexasShotz]

Got one coming with my Sierra 5, for my 13.7 Quantom Mk2 can’t wait!

[@boomstickBMF]

Was having trouble with the ratchet only going one notch or not at all. Took it all apart, swapped spring/washer/nut with my other mount and just kept working them on and off. Was getting frustrated and figured the whole mech needed a break in. It finally worked out. Then I saw this vid lol

[@tom2492]

How about high temp anti-seize as a lubricant?

[@CountryboyBOB]

My keymo didn’t make clicking sound Dead Air said it didn’t matter and apparently it’s not something they warranty . I assume it’s the detent wore down they did send me a link to purchase the detent ring for 29.00 doesn’t sound like the warranty covers it.

[@maxcole3930]

I'm looking at the dead air wolfman for mostly a dedicated PCC can for cmmg dissent MKG 9mm. I would like options to put it on 300bo. Any other recommendations? I would use a Keymicro or Xeno adapters. Isn't Xeno newer which is better & why?

[@Holla28]

mines no longer makes the ratchet sound and would get a loose, I lubed it and It tightens just fine but still not ratchet sound.

[@seanm8665]

From what I’ve read it’s the ‘detent’ rings wearing down that makes it stop the ratcheting sound. Apparently it’s still reliable but not cool because I want that sound!

[@pdog109]

Do you put lube all over the ring or just where the teeth are?

[@DaddyKnives25]

My nomad30 keeps coming loose from the 5/8-24 adapter… while shooting it on my SCAR17, I don’t want to put any Loctite on the threads, but is that what y’all would suggest?

[@SBR_YETI]

Rockset bubba

[@ehisself2747]

Great info Tass!

[@PandemicGameplay]

Why do you not include shims anymore with your flash hiders? Also why don't you include Rocksett? Kind of slack considering Surefire does...

[@TacoTory556]

Can’t wait to get my sierra 5

[@Unknown-cq1km]

What kind of grease? Will gun butter work?

[@DeadAirSilencers]

Yes, Gunbutter will work fine.

[@mattchilders3123]

I shot my new Nomad suppressor I waited 11 months for. Put it on the gun and zeroed my scope with it on. Road out to the deer stand and noticed my end cap was missing. Had to take the dang thing off and hunt without it. $55.00 later and good as new. Wait, it was new when it end cap fell off. But the Keymo worked, well until it got hot and I couldn't get the suppressor clickty clackty. Wished I would have watched this video of "TIPS" firsts.

[@qjames0077]

Anyone know what kind of muzzle device is on the AK in the beginning?

[@DeadAirSilencers]

That's a KeyMo flash hider.

[@qjames0077]

@@DeadAirSilencers specific model? I have a Nomad 30 in NFA jail. Just got a muzzle device for my AR, I didn't know you guys had muzzle devices for AKs, other than the Wolverine

[@LdHrothgar]

Y'all need to start making adapters in M16x1 LH, 5/8-32, 11/16-24 or other less common thread pitches,.

[@maddogtwo000]

So what Grease was using?

[@no1dolso752]

Use white lithium grease

[@NotYourFriendPal]

Fyi. Followed this vid instructions. My Sierra 5 still seized after 260rds at the range. I used Blaster Penetrating catalyst and it came off just like the video. Before the BP, it wouldn’t budge with a 10in crescent wrench. I thought my pinned flash hider was going to break. F- Keymo.

[@DonaldJPump24]

Mine no longer makes a clicking sound. The tiny little tabs have worn down....

[@DeadAirSilencers]

You can continue to use the silencer without the clicks as long as it is tightened down, but send us an email to [e-mail] and we can get a new piece sent out to you.

[@NTurman]

My sandman never made a ratchet sound since I’ve had it.
