Choose the woven 3K twill finish for the classic carbon look, or forged carbon for the marbled, swirl-pattern aesthetic. 7075 aluminium clamp, M-LOK slots, dual-platform compatible with MTW and Heretic Labs Article I. Barrel nut sold separately.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhere a slim handguard prioritises tight handling, an oversized 50mm-wide rail makes the opposite trade. The wider profile gives more surface area for accessory mounts, more room to grip with a full-wrap hold, and a more substantial visual presence on the rifle. For builders running lights, lasers, and a forward grip on the same rail, the extra width is the practical reason to choose this profile.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe choice between 3K twill and forged carbon is mainly aesthetic, though the manufacturing techniques differ. 3K twill is a woven carbon fabric where the count refers to the number of filaments per tow — the classic, regular checkerboard weave pattern. Forged carbon uses short-strand compression moulding to produce a marbled, irregular pattern where each piece is visually unique. Both materials are structurally excellent; the decision comes down to which finish suits your build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMounting uses a 7075 aluminium clamp system. 7075 is the higher-strength aerospace aluminium grade — relevant here because the clamp takes the rotational load from any muzzle device or attached accessory. M-LOK slots run along the rail for accessory mounting, with sleek profile cutouts that keep the rail looking clean when no accessories are fitted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCompatibility is dual-platform: the rail fits the standard Wolverine MTW barrel-nut interface, and also matches the Heretic Labs Article I barrel system. For builders running either platform — or considering a future swap between them — the single rail covers both.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 16px; color: #1b3a6b; margin: 18px 0 8px;\"\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100%; border-collapse: collapse; font-size: 13px; margin: 0 0 18px;\"\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #1B3A6B; color: #fff;\"\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 7px 12px; text-align: left;\"\u003eSpecification\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"padding: 7px 12px; text-align: left;\"\u003eDetail\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eManufacturer\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eStrike Carbon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eLength\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e7 inches\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eWidth\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e50mm (oversized)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003ePremium 3K carbon fibre OR forged carbon\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eClamp\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003e7075 aerospace aluminium alloy\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eMount\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eM-LOK slots\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr style=\"background: #f5f5f5;\"\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003ePlatform compatibility\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding: 7px 12px; border: 1px solid #eee;\"\u003eWolverine MTW, Heretic Labs Article I, AR-spec platforms\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background: #1B3A6B; color: #fff; padding: 12px 16px; border-radius: 6px; margin: 18px 0 0; font-size: 13px;\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong style=\"color: #fff;\"\u003e💡 Titan Forge Airsoft tip: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor the longer rail option, see the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/strike-carbon-10-inch-3k-twill-carbon-hand-guard\" style=\"color: #cdd6f4;\"\u003e10\" 3K Twill version\u003c\/a\u003e or the \u003ca href=\"\/products\/strike-carbon-forged-carbon-fibre-10-inch-mtw-hand-guard\" style=\"color: #cdd6f4;\"\u003e10\" Forged version\u003c\/a\u003e.\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"STRIKE CARBON","offers":[{"title":"3k weave","offer_id":55571980747128,"sku":"1186248419","price":200.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0562\/8097\/3450\/files\/StrikeCarbon7_CarbonFibreHandGuard-TitanForgeAirsoft-1.webp?v=1780162640","url":"https:\/\/www.titanforgeairsoft.com\/products\/7-3k-twill-or-forged-carbon-hand-guard","provider":"Titan Forge Airsoft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
