Description

MPN: A04800

Features:

  • Ultralight Titanium Build: Crafted from aerospace-grade titanium, the Hypertap Ti is up to 45 % lighter than the original stainless model—ideal for lightweight rifles
  • 84% Recoil Reduction: Convergent–divergent (CD) port geometry maximizes gas efficiency for exceptional recoil mitigation while maintaining safe baffle angles and proper bore clearance
  • Safe Baffle Angles: 35° impingement angles reduce the risk of splashback reaching the shooter in the event of a baffle strike
  • Low Gas Blowback: CD geometry creates a narrow, forward-vectored exhaust plume to keep gases away from the shooter
  • Zero Flash Increase: Does not add or create secondary flash, minimizing flash-related blast effects common to other devices
  • Integrated Universal Timing Nut: Installs or removes with a standard adjustable wrench or the included lightweight spanner tools
  • Lightweight & Compact: FEA-optimized, competition-legal design that’s lighter, smaller, and shorter than others in its class
  • Rugged Skeletonized Crown: Skeletonized exit crown protects the aperture from debris and impact damage
  • Cleaning-Friendly Design: Open crown and fully exposed baffles help reduce carbon buildup and simplify cleaning

Details:

For shooters building a lightweight 5.56 rifle, the Precision Armament Slim Hypertap Ti Muzzle Brake stays true to that goal from the very front of the barrel. Machined entirely from aerospace-grade titanium and sized down to a 0.90" outer diameter, it keeps weight to a minimum—just over an ounce and a half—while still delivering the signature recoil control the Hypertap line is known for.

Stable, Predictable Recoil Control

The brake uses Precision Armament’s three-baffle, 35-degree porting system, venting gas to the sides with enough authority to keep even pencil-profile barrels settled shot to shot. Top ports are added to counter muzzle rise, giving you a predictable sight picture whether you’re running fast strings, working positional drills, or shooting at distance. The result is less movement, quicker recovery, and a rifle that stays exactly where you want it.

Timing Without Shims or Crush Washers

One of the strongest features of this brake is the installation process. Instead of stacking shims or dealing with crush washers, the integrated timing nut lets you align the brake precisely by simply rotating the collar. It’s clean, quick, and especially handy for rifles that see frequent maintenance or configuration changes.

Compact and Optimized for Slim Barrels

The Slim-Body Hypertap Ti is designed specifically for barrels measuring 0.825" or smaller at the muzzle—ideal for lightweight AR-15s, working carbines, or rifles where front-end balance matters. At only 2.11 inches long, it keeps your build streamlined and avoids the unwanted muzzle heaviness that often comes with aggressive brake designs.

Lightweight Materials, Hard-Use Durability

Titanium construction offers excellent heat and corrosion resistance without adding mass, and the QPQ-nitride-finished timing nut ensures smooth operation and long service life. The combination makes this brake suitable for high-volume training, duty setups, or any build where reliability and weight savings are equally important.

If you want serious recoil reduction from a brake that won’t weigh down a lightweight 5.56 rifle, the Slim Hypertap Ti delivers exactly that—effective control, clean installation, and a profile built for fast, well-balanced shooting.
