1/2 Stud - 6.500 Long Broached w/1.250 Thread

The 1/2 Stud - 6.500 Long Broached with 1.250 Thread by ARP is a precision fastening component engineered specifically for high-performance AR-platform builds. This broached stud serves as a critical connection point in receiver assemblies and barrel extensions, ensuring load-bearing integrity and repeatability. It is designed for professionals such as law enforcement armors, military gunsmiths, and competitive shooters who demand reliability in their firearms.

The broached design of this stud creates precise dimensional consistency across its 6.500-inch length, eliminating common issues like drift and tolerance stack found in conventional drilling. With a diameter of 1/2 inch and a thread specification of 1.250 inch, this component provides substantial engagement surface and shear strength, which are critical for applications subjected to recoil and thermal cycling. The broached bore ensures concentric alignment when paired with corresponding receivers and barrel extensions, enhancing overall performance.

This component is particularly beneficial for armorers building precision rifles or match-grade ARs where repeatability and durability are essential. Its lightweight design, at 0.34 pounds, integrates seamlessly into modular builds without adding unnecessary weight. Proper installation requires adherence to torque specifications, which should be consulted with the upper receiver manufacturer for optimal performance.
