Aquila offers barrel threading
services for virtually all situations from just plain threading to
machining special adapters. We single point cut any thread pitch
you require and it will be absolutely square and concentric to the
bore. Some mounts do not have the proper relief cuts; therefore we
machine tenens on all the barrels we thread for proper fitting.
All of our adapters and thread
protectors are made from 416 stainless. We can machine them from
17-4 or Titanium if required.
We recently were chosen by
Gemtech to handle a portion of their barrel threading work and are
happy to work with Gemtech’s customers to provide any machining
services required.

***WARNING***
Always check the alignment of
your suppressor before using it for the first time. We use a gauge
to be sure that the threading was properly aligned. However, that
does not always mean that your silencer will be aligned. We have
found many cans that were not properly machined.
Screw the silencer on the barrel
and look down the bore from the breech end to check alignment. If
the baffles seem to be off center, contact the company that threaded
the barrel so they can determine what’s causing the misalignment.
Most mounts or flash suppressors
have a 2B hole (See description below) and a 3A thread will be too
tight for your can or mounts. If you require “tight” threads,
please send the mount so that we can assure it will screw on
completely.
There
are three established Classes of Thread, designated in the Unified
series by adding “A” for screws and “B” for internal threads to show
definite limits and tolerances.
Class lB, rarely used, thread is that in which a 1 A screw can be
run in readily for quick and easy assembly. The hole is classified
as 1 B. The fit is 1 B thread.
Class 2B thread consists of a 2A screw in a 2B hole. This 2B thread
has wide application, accommodates plating, finishes, and coating to
a limited extent and, therefore, has fair tolerance allowances.
Class 3B Thread means a 3A Screw in a 3B threaded hole for
applications where tolerance limits are close.
Just in case you weren’t aware, a rifle barrel must be at least 16”
long unless it is a registered short-barreled rifle. There are some
rifles like the AR-15 and the 10/22 that have been configured into a
pistol and they may have barrels shorter than 16”. If you are in
doubt, please inquire. Keep it legal.
