What's included in the package

1 pc. Picatinny rail and screws.

Overflade

This rail is QPQ-treated (Quench-Polish-Quench). QPQ is a salt bath nitriding process that creates an extremely hard and corrosion-resistant surface. The treatment penetrates the steel and is not merely a coating – even deep scratches will still expose treated material.

QPQ provides a matte, black finish and is the most durable surface treatment for steel rails and steel mounts. A QPQ-treated rail requires minimal maintenance and can withstand heavy use in all weather conditions.

Montering

Mounting this rail is quick and simple. The rail is attached directly to the rifle's receiver with the included screws.

Manufacturer's recommendation:

Tightening torque: 3.5–4.0 Nm
Apply a little weak threadlocker to the screws (primarily for rust protection)
Tighten the screws in a cross pattern for even distribution

A torque wrench is necessary for correct installation. Overtightening can damage the threads in the receiver.

MOA

MOA stands for Minute of Angle and indicates the rail's incline. An angled rail compensates for bullet drop over distance by tilting the scope slightly forward. This gives you more elevation adjustment in the scope's turret – if you need to shoot really far.

For most shooting range and hunting scenarios, 0 MOA (flat rail) is more than sufficient. If you are shooting at longer distances or using a scope with limited elevation, 10 or 20 MOA can give you the extra margin you need.

Materiale

This rail is made of steel, which remains the classic choice for both mounts and Picatinny rails. Steel has high rigidity and is extremely durable. The material tolerates repeated mounting and dismounting without the contact surfaces deforming.

Steel is heavier than aluminum, but for a Picatinny rail, the weight difference is practically minimal – typically under 50 grams.

Brand

Nieload is a Danish manufacturer of Picatinny rails and scope mounts, with a focus on precision and quality. Everything is designed and produced in-house on advanced machinery. They offer rails in both steel with QPQ treatment and aluminum with hard anodizing.
