Details

When designing the new Fortis Lightweight Enhanced lock nut and endplate system, the goal was to keep weight light and eliminate the use of complicated tools, wrenches, and ratchets. The K2 system uses a locking lever mechanism that seats itself through a slot on the bottom of the endplate and into cutouts on the castle nut. This ultra-precise fit allows the lock nut to be in place and locked in without staking the endplate. There is no ratchet, no set screws, and the K2 castle nut won't back out.

Perfect!!

This castle nut is awesome. So easy to install and no staking or torqueing. Just hand tight and tighten an additional 2 to 3 clicks max with a castle nut wrench. Removing it can be a little tricky, you have to make sure the locking tab is out of the groove before trying to wrench it off. Also, be really careful with the wrench, if it slips, the anodized finish will scratch pretty easy. I initially installed it perfectly without scratching the nut, but I ended up scratching it when I tried to tighten it a bit more and my wrench slipped. I wish they sold just the nut individually so you can replace a scratched nut or change colors. It also looks really cool, I just ordered another one for my other AR.
