Black Powder Nipple Wrench for SliXshot & Replica Revolvers
Remove and install stubborn black powder percussion nipples with greater control using the SliX-Wrench Black Powder Nipple Wrench. Designed for strength, leverage, and long service life, this precision-machined T-handle tool fits all standard SliXshot nipples, SliXshot Pocket Revolver Nipples, and many factory replica percussion revolver nipples.
Small factory nipple wrenches can be difficult to grip and may slip when removing stubborn, fouled, or corroded nipples. The SliX-Wrench features a durable T-handle design that provides a secure grip and increased leverage, allowing slow, steady, and controlled pressure during routine maintenance.
Precision CNC-machined from 41L40 steel and heat-treated to a Rockwell hardness of 48–52, the SliX-Wrench is engineered to resist wear and deformation through repeated use by Cowboy Action competitors, black powder enthusiasts, and gunsmiths.

Why a T-Handle Works Better
Removing percussion nipples often requires more torque than small factory wrenches can comfortably provide. The SliX-Wrench's full-size T-handle gives you greater leverage and better control, making stubborn, fouled, or lightly corroded nipples easier to remove.
Precision CNC-machined from hardened 41L40 steel, the wrench is built to resist wear while helping reduce slipping, rounded nipple flats, and damage to surrounding firearm components.
Recommended Use
-
Confirm the firearm is completely unloaded.
-
Follow the firearm manufacturer's maintenance instructions.
-
Seat the wrench fully over the nipple flats.
-
Apply slow, steady, and controlled pressure.
-
Avoid excessive force on seized or damaged nipples.
Nipples that are severely corroded, damaged, or seized may require penetrating oil or assistance from a qualified gunsmith.
