The Science Behind a New Breed of Barrels

Dec 6, 2024

New Composite Heat Release Technology from Avient

For firearms manufacturers, thermal management, durability, and weight are crucial factors in overall barrel performance. Ready for a game-changer? Composite Heat Release technology is a patent-pending combination of ceramic and carbon fiber reinforced composite materials that we custom formulate and apply to manufacturer-supplied barrel blanks. The end result: barrels that weigh less, heat slower, and cool faster than traditional steel or carbon-wrapped steel barrels.

At Avient, we don’t make barrels, we make your barrels better. Our team of material scientists (who also happen to be shooting sports enthusiasts) will work with you to develop composite solutions for your barrels, completely customized to hit the mark on your unique performance needs.
