Proper thread protection is a small investment that prevents damage to your rifle’s muzzle threads, preserves suppressor alignment, and keeps your barrel ready for attachments. For shooters who demand durability and precise fit, a dedicated protector is an essential piece of kit in any range bag or service arsenal.

Banish Thread Protector

Why this protector stands out

The Banish Thread Protector is built specifically for rifle barrels with 5/8-24 threads and is listed as .720 silver in the product description. That combination denotes a protector sized to match common 5/8-24 muzzle threads while offering a .720 external profile for secure seating and easy hand-tightening. At $19.99, it delivers precision machining and a corrosion-resistant silver finish at an affordable price point.

Specifications and fit

Key specifications from the listing: THREAD PROTECTOR, RIFLE BARREL 5/8 24 .720 SILVER. This means the protector threads match 5/8-24 pitch — the most common standard on many modern rifle muzzles and match barrels. The .720 dimension reflects the outer diameter profile used to ensure consistent contact and clearance with suppressor mounts and muzzle devices. The product is made by Banish, a brand noted for practical, no-nonsense muzzle accessories, and is offered in various models to suit different barrel profiles.

Practical applications

Use this protector whenever the muzzle threads are exposed: after removing a muzzle device, during transport, or when storing a rifle. The machined fit minimizes thread damage and helps maintain concentricity for repeatable zero and suppressor alignment.

Installation and maintenance

Hand-thread the protector onto clean, debris-free threads; use a wrench only if the design includes flats or an anti-rotation feature. The silver finish resists corrosion but a light application of anti-seize on stainless or coated threads will make future removal easier. Treat the protector like any precision part: store it in a padded compartment to avoid dings that could transfer to mating surfaces.
