Looking for torque specs on this item and is threadlocker advised?

Answered by tylertwo, member, from LA, United States, on October 02, 2025

Not sure your application, but as a guide the AR-15 family says 24 ft-lb for muzzle devices, I would start around there. Crush washers are used for things that need to be timed, like a muzzle break, but not needed for things that don't have a specific orientation. Thread locker on a muzzle device is almost a holy war. If you use a suppressor, then yes definitely use thread locker, with no crush washer (they make timing shims for this application instead) and Rocksett is the recommended one there. If not, then the standard on an AR-15 is to use lubrication (believe it or not), Areoshell 64/33MS grease is the TDP recommendation.
