The Super Reaction Rod was designed to fulfill the need of an advanced armorer who frequently works on AR-15/M4 platforms with over torqued, seized or Loctited barrel nuts. The Super Reaction Rod works by pre-loading the barrel extension lugs to the lugs of the Super Reaction Rod to eliminate movement created by adding torque to the barrel nut while at the same time fixing the upper receiver in place. Having the barrel extension mated t...o the Super Reaction Rod lugs and fixing the upper receiver before torqueing will remove stress that could be placed on the index pin. This allows the armorer to place tremendous torque on the barrel nut to assist in breaking seized nuts loose. The Super Reaction Rod’s pre-loading system can also be removed to allow it to work just like a standard Reaction Rod, which allows upper work to be performed in a 360° both vertically, and horizontally.

Great tool for your bench (30/06/2015)

This tool is probably one of my favorites. It takes away from the possibility of ruining your upper receiver when installing a new barrel. I cannot find myself going back to the receiver block in order to properly torque a barrel onto a receiver. A very valuable tool to have.

Excellent (09/07/2015)

Received my super reaction rod today. While it was expensive, I can tell you that this is high quality. So basically you unscrew and remove the 2 brass wedge clamps before sliding the tool into the upper. Fits perfectly, now after the rod is loaded into the receiver you then reinstall the brass wedge clamps. Depending on whether you're loosening or tightening a barrel nut determines which gets put in and tightened first. If you are removing a barrel but or let's say taking off your flash hider, you will want to tighten the front/muzzle end screw first. This takes up all the slack "preload", putting the device in the optimal place to give you the most torque. To tighten just do the opposite. Simple design, yet revolutionary in the fact I can now lock my upper in place (to torque) forces. The old upper receiver vise block... I'll put that in the box with all the other old tools. Maybe I'll need it in the future, but the super reaction rod provides a much more stable platform. I can now work on my AR at any angle as long as the rod is in the barrel nut cut outs, and it differs from the others because you can actually lock it in place. I highly recommend this product, outperforms the old model, and model that I've used previously.

Top takeaways

The Super Reaction Rod is designed for advanced armorers to deal with over torqued, seized, or Loctited barrel nuts on AR-15/M4 platforms.
It pre-loads the barrel extension lugs to its lugs to prevent movement when adding torque to the barrel nut, protecting the index pin from stress.
The tool can also function as a standard Reaction Rod, allowing for 360° work on the upper receiver both vertically and horizontally.
