Dead Air Silencers Announces the New Sandman X High-Performance Suppressor

January 2025 – Dead Air Silencers, manufacturer of the next evolution and quiet purpose-built suppressors on the market today, celebrates the 10th year anniversary of the heralded Sandman series of professional-grade suppressors with the announcement of the new Sandman X. Constructed of premium materials and finished in high-temp Black or FDE Cerakote to ensure the kind of dependability serious shooters and defense professionals demand in combat and hard-use environments, the new Sandman X is the pinnacle of suppressor engineering and performance.

The Sandman X utilizes Dead Air’s advanced Triskelion™ Gas Management System™ technology — an innovative, 3D printed baffle system that reduces weight, boosts strength, improves thermal performance, and greatly minimizes gas blowback. This is the first model in the Sandman series to incorporate this Triskelion™ Gas Management System™. The result is a ready-for-anything suppressor optimally balanced to deliver best-in-class sound reduction both at the muzzle and at the shooter’s ear, as well as reduced recoil and cleaner operation.

In short, the Sandman X is the new go-to, hard-use suppressor for shooters and operators working in extreme conditions and at high rates of fire. Developed for semi-auto and full-auto use in 7.62 NATO rifles, the Sandman X retains its optimal performance characteristics across multiple calibers. The unit features the Dead Air R-series flash hider front cap, making it compatible for use on 5.56 NATO platforms when paired with the Dead Air 5.56 flash hider.

For mounting, the Sandman X accepts all Dead Air HUB adapters, including the KeyMo, Xeno, and Direct Thread mounting systems, and is compatible with many of the 1.375-24 adapters on the market today. This, combined with the Flash Hider R-series front cap modularity, allows the Sandman X to easily integrate with most setups.
