Description
Direct thread mounts work fine until you want to move your can between rifles without spinning it off a hot barrel. The Dead Air KeyMo HUB Adapter (DA428) fixes that. It threads into the industry-standard 1 3/8-24 HUB socket on your suppressor and converts it to Dead Air's KeyMo quick-detach system, which has earned its reputation as one of the most trusted QD mounts on the market. Pop the can on, ratchet it down, and you get a locked-up mount that returns to the same spot every time, which means minimal point of impact shift when you swap between hosts.
What the KeyMo HUB Adapter Works With
Because HUB is an industry-wide standard, this adapter fits a long list of cans beyond Dead Air's own lineup. It drops right into the Nomad series, Primal, and Sierra-5, and it's a popular upgrade for SilencerCo Omega owners who want a faster, more secure mount than the factory setup. On the muzzle end, it pairs with any Dead Air KeyMo or KeyMicro brake or flash hider, plus the KeyMo Zero. Keep in mind you'll need one of those Keymount muzzle devices on your host barrel, so plan on grabbing one for each rifle you want to run the can on.
Built Like the Rest of Dead Air's Gear
This isn't a lightweight piece that gets chewed up after a few range trips. The adapter is machined from 17-4 stainless steel and wears a black nitride finish for wear and corrosion resistance. It measures 1.670 inches long and adds about 4.3 ounces to your suppressor, a fair trade for the convenience of moving one can across multiple rifles in seconds. Installation is simple: unscrew your existing HUB mount or direct thread insert, thread the KeyMo adapter in its place, and you're set. If you've been eyeing a QD setup for your HUB can, this is the piece that makes it happen.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will the Dead Air KeyMo HUB Adapter fit my suppressor?
If your can has the industry-standard 1 3/8-24 HUB socket, yes. That covers Dead Air's Nomad series, Primal, and Sierra-5, plus a huge range of HUB cans from other brands. It's also a well-known upgrade path for SilencerCo Omega owners looking to ditch the factory mount.
Do I need anything else to use the KeyMo HUB Adapter?
Yes, your host rifle needs a Keymount muzzle device, which is sold separately. The adapter works with any Dead Air KeyMo or KeyMicro muzzle brake or flash hider, as well as the KeyMo Zero. If you plan to swap one suppressor between several rifles, put a Keymount device on each barrel.
Does the KeyMo mount cause point of impact shift?
The KeyMo system is known for its repeatable lockup, so the suppressor returns to the same position every time you mount it. That translates to minimal point of impact shift between removals, which is a big part of why it's one of the most popular QD systems out there.
How hard is it to install the DA428 adapter?
It's a quick job. Remove your suppressor's existing direct thread mount or HUB insert, then thread the KeyMo adapter into the 1 3/8-24 socket and torque it to spec. From there the can attaches and detaches from any Keymount muzzle device in seconds.
