Overview
This low-profile gas block is built for AR-15 setups that need a compact fit under handguards without extra branding. It is sized for .875" barrels and uses a nitride finish over 4150 hardened steel, with steel 10-32 x 3/16 knurled cup point set screws for installation. The plain, no-logo design keeps the profile clean for hunters and shooters who prefer a simple, functional build. A roll pin is not included, and Aero Precision notes that non-permanent thread locker is recommended if used.

Frequently Asked Questions
What barrel size does this low profile gas block fit?
The source data says Aero Precision gas blocks fit barrels with .625, .750, .825, and .936 OD options. This product title specifies .875, but .875 is not listed in the provided fitment details, so that size should be verified before purchase.
Is this gas block marked with a logo?
This version is described as "W/No Logo," so it is the plain version rather than the engraved Aero logo version.
What material and finish are listed for this gas block?
The source data lists 4150 hardened steel construction with a nitride coating. The broader product description also mentions phosphate or nitride coating across the line.
Does it include the roll pin?
No. The source data specifically says the roll pin is not included.
Are there any installation notes I should know about?
Yes. The source data says not to use red thread locker on the set screw threads. If thread locker is used, Aero Precision recommends a non-permanent variety.
