The brake has a steel 3-chamber design, with slanted baffles that discharge powder gases to the sides. The outflowing stream of gases strikes the brake baffles located a short distance from the barrel's exit and is partially braked. This causes a reduction in its kinetic energy and a simultaneous local increase in the so-called dynamic pressure.
This results in a drastic reduction in recoil and slightly reduces barrel toss. Properly directing the powder gases minimizes the raising of dust clouds and allows the shooter to maintain an unobstructed field of view, which improves the comfort of shooting while lying down.

The steel body of the brake has undergone a thermo-chemical nitriding treatment, which has high wear resistance, increases top hardness and prevents corrosion. The brake has a Self Timing lock nut, the proper tightening of which requires a torque wrench with a setting of 35 lbs. Installation of the brake is facilitated by a small level with a flat base, and a flat claw wrench.
