The KAK Low-Profile Gas Block, .750in, Set-Screw (brand part no. AR15-UP-001) is sized for a .750-inch barrel journal, a common gas block diameter on AR-15 barrels. Kak Industry Llc. built this gas block with a low profile specifically so it clears a free-float handguard, letting the handguard run the barrel without contacting the block itself. It mounts using a set-screw retention system rather than a taper pin, which makes it straightforward to install and remove during a build or barrel swap. A properly fitted low-profile gas block like this is essential to correctly routing gas from the barrel’s gas port to the bolt carrier under a free-float rail.
