Yankee Hill YHM-285C2 Phantom Flash Hider 1/2x28 5.56 NATO Black

The Yankee Hill YHM-285C2 Phantom Flash Hider delivers superior muzzle flash reduction for 5.56x45mm NATO rifles through its advanced three-prong design. This steel flash suppressor features precision-cut prongs that disrupt and cool muzzle gases more effectively than traditional A2-style compensators.

What Makes This Different

The YHM-285C2 utilizes a closed-bottom design that prevents debris ingress while maintaining structural integrity under rapid fire. Unlike standard birdcage flash hiders, the Phantom's solid steel construction and optimized prong geometry reduce visible signature by up to 85% compared to bare muzzles. The 1/2"-28 TPI threading ensures secure attachment to standard AR-15 barrels without requiring timing or crush washers.

Key Features

• Three-prong closed-bottom design eliminates 85% of muzzle flash
• Heat-treated 4140 steel construction withstands sustained fire
• 1/2"-28 TPI threads fit standard 5.56/.223 AR-15 barrels
• Black oxide finish resists corrosion and reduces reflectivity
• 2.75" overall length maintains compact profile
• Compatible with most suppressor quick-attach systems
• No timing required - hand-tight installation with thread locker

Field testing demonstrates consistent flash reduction across various ammunition weights from 55-grain M193 to 77-grain match loads. The closed-bottom design prevents ring damage when used as an improvised breaching tool, while the precision-machined prongs maintain zero shift after repeated heating cycles. Law enforcement and competitive shooters report maintained accuracy during low-light engagements where muzzle flash could compromise night vision.
