Why Are Suppressors Titanium

Did you ever wonder why leading suppressors like BANISH Suppressors are made out of titanium? Sure, the obvious weight reduction comes to mind, but titanium offers much more than just a reduction in weight. Even though suppressor manufacturers still use heavy steel in their suppressor construction, BANISH chose early on to be all titanium. Let’s take a look at a few of the things that make a titanium suppressor the only logical choice for suppressor users.

  • Lightweight: Nobody likes extra weight on the end of their rifle or pistol. It changes the balance of the gun, and affects how the gun performs. Using lighter materials reduces these problems, and titanium is the logical choice for a suppressor.
  • Durable: Titanium is one of the strongest metals available, and the special alloy used by Banish Suppressors is designed to stand up to the high temperatures and pressures created by many common rifle rounds. This ensures a longer service life than comparable steel suppressors, while still maintaining a lightweight profile.
  • Faster cooling: Titanium cools faster than steel which makes for a better suppressor. The faster you can cool muzzle exhaust gases, the quieter your gun shoots, and you get reduced heat mirage to boot.
  • Easier to clean: The durable properties of titanium also make it easier to clean. A quick dip in solvent and simple wipedown is all many Banish Suppressor owners report needing to do when they clean their suppressor.

Now it is true that titanium is a bit more expensive than steel. It costs more to purchase, process and machine, and that does add up. However, it is not so much more expensive as to make the difference in cost unacceptable. Given the strong regulatory climate around suppressor ownership, it makes sense to buy the best suppressor the first time around, which makes the modest increase in cost for an all titanium suppressor almost negligible. Our top selling BANISH 30 retails for less than $1000 and can be used on any gun from .22 through all common .30 calibers, making it a true bargain in the suppressor world.

When you purchase an all titanium Banish Suppressor, you are buying a suppressor that is the one that fits any gun, which means with a simple and inexpensive end cap change, you only need one suppressor for all your favorite rifles or pistols. By choosing a titanium suppressor, you choose to reduce the weight on your gun, gain superior suppression characteristics, greater durability, easier cleaning, and stronger construction than any other silencer material on the market today.
