Warranty Policy

Silent Steel USA – Limited Lifetime Warranty
At Silent Steel USA, we stand behind the quality and craftsmanship of our products. We offer a limited lifetime warranty to the original owner, covering defects in materials and workmanship for all Silent Steel USA suppressors and suppressor-related components.

If a product is found to be defective under normal use, Silent Steel USA will, at its discretion, repair or replace the product free of charge.

Warranty Exclusions

This warranty does not cover damage or malfunction resulting from:

  • Careless or criminal handling
  • Neglect, corrosion, or improper maintenance
  • Improper installation, mounting, or use of unauthorized parts
  • Unauthorized modifications, disassembly, or repairs
  • Use of incompatible, defective, or reloaded ammunition
  • Any other improper or unreasonable use

Baffle strikes not caused by manufacturing defects are excluded from warranty coverage.

Serviceability & Wear Components

Silent Steel USA suppressors are fully user-serviceable, and all components are replaceable. The turbine, while replaceable, is subject to flame erosion and has a variable lifespan depending on barrel length.

Estimated Turbine Service Life by Barrel Length:

  • 11” barrel – ~12,000 rounds
  • 14.5” barrel – ~15,000 rounds
  • 18” barrel – ~18,000 rounds

Service life estimates apply to stainless steel suppressors including the Streamer, Compact Streamer, and Micro Streamer models.

Important: Disassembly of the wire mesh from the flow module is not supported under this warranty. Damage caused by such disassembly is considered user-induced and will void warranty coverage for the affected components.
