YHM introduced the Sidewinder family of pistol suppressors in 2015. The result of extensive R&D, YHM's Sidewinder's are optimized to give you an affordable, lightweight suppressor packed with features typically found in more expensive models. The Sidewinder utilizes an all new high efficiency mono-core baffle made from 7075-T6 aluminum that is class 3 hardcoat anodized. The outer tube is made from 6061-T6 aircraft quality aluminum which is also finished with class 3 hardcoat anodize. These materials offer high strength and longevity in a lightweight package. Our Adapter, Nielsen Sleeve, Blast Baffle, and Rear Cap are constructed from heat treated 17-4ph stainless steel. This type of stainless steel is extremely resistant to corrosion and wear, and will not degrade when exposed to extreme temperatures.
