Timber Creek Outdoors 5/824TPS Thread Protector Silver 5/8x24 TPI

The Timber Creek Outdoors 5/824TPS Thread Protector prevents damage to precision-cut barrel threads while maintaining the clean aesthetics of your rifle. This silver anodized aluminum component secures threaded barrels when muzzle devices are removed for cleaning or transport.

What Makes This Different

Machined from 6061-T6 billet aluminum rather than stamped steel, this thread protector offers superior corrosion resistance and dimensional accuracy. The Type III hard anodizing provides a durable finish that resists scratches and wear from repeated installation. Unlike basic steel protectors, the precision threading ensures smooth installation without cross-threading concerns.

Key Features

• 6061-T6 billet aluminum construction for lightweight durability
• 5/8"-24 TPI threading fits most .308 Winchester and similar caliber barrels
• Type III hard anodized silver finish resists corrosion and wear
• Knurled exterior surface provides secure grip for hand installation
• Low-profile design maintains rifle balance and appearance

This thread protector maintains barrel thread integrity during storage, transport, and cleaning operations. The aluminum construction weighs significantly less than steel alternatives while providing equal protection. Hunters appreciate the corrosion resistance during wet weather conditions, while competitive shooters value the consistent threading for quick muzzle device changes between stages.
