Wheeler 1199465 Muzzle Device Buffer Tube Crowfoot Wrench Steel

The Wheeler 1199465 Muzzle Device & Buffer Tube Crowfoot Wrench eliminates the frustration of installing and removing muzzle devices and buffer tubes without proper clearance. This specialized armorer's tool provides the leverage and access needed for tight spaces where standard wrenches fail.

What Makes This Different

Unlike standard open-end wrenches that require full rotation clearance, this crowfoot design works with a ratcheting handle or torque wrench in confined spaces. The tool features precision-cut slots that engage muzzle device flats and buffer tube castellations without marring surfaces. Professional armorers rely on this exact configuration for consistent, controlled installation torque.

Key Features

• Dual-purpose design fits both muzzle devices and buffer tube castle nuts
• Black oxide steel construction resists corrosion and wear
• Precision-machined engagement surfaces prevent slipping and damage
• 3/8-inch square drive accepts standard ratchet handles and torque wrenches
• Compact profile fits in tight receiver extension areas
• Compatible with AR-15, AR-10, and similar platform components
• Professional-grade tool steel maintains dimensional accuracy under load

This crowfoot wrench delivers consistent results whether installing competition muzzle brakes, flash suppressors, or performing buffer system maintenance. The tool's geometry allows proper torque application in spaces where traditional wrenches cannot operate effectively. Gunsmiths and serious builders appreciate the controlled leverage that prevents over-tightening and component damage.
