Dead Air Begins Shipping Nomax 33 Big Bore Silencer

Dead Air's latest silencer is now shipping. The Nomax 33 is a titanium silencer that accommodates calibers up to .338 Laupa Magnum. And though it can handle large calibers, it utilizes titanium construction to keep the weight down.

The Nomax 33's name is an obvious play on the popular Nomad family of .30 caliber silencers. It uses the “Nomad two-stage coaxial baffle technology” but is sized up for larger calibers. Dead Air uses additive manufacturing (aka 3D printing) to build the Nomax 33.

Dead Air’s only listed barrel length restriction is an 18-inch minimum barrel length for .338 Lapua. The Nomax 33 is 9.65 inches long and weighs 15.4 ounces with a Xemax mount. Other mounts including Keymo can be used, along with any other HUB (1.375-24) muzzle device. The MSRP is $1,299 and it is showing up at retailers now.

From the manufacturer:

“It’s short, it’s light, and it’s here. The long-awaited .33 caliber suppressor from Dead Air Silencers. It’s time your long-range precision rifle wears the hat it deserves without any sacrifice. You’ve waited patiently for a technologically advanced large bore silencer and we’ve delivered. The Nomax 33 is sized for optimal sound suppression while the titanium construction provides a lighter weight to not drag you down.

The Nomax 33 borrows from the same proven and patented baffle technology found in our Nomad series. We’ve optimized performance for big-bore cartridges by designing an enhanced two-stage coaxial baffle system and pressure harnessing structures to efficiently regulate extreme high pressures.

Additive manufacturing was selected to effectively pair enhanced durability with weight optimization. At under 10” long and just over 15 ounces with the included Xemax adapter, the Nomax 33 will be your favorite long range silencer.”
