So, the Hush Puppy (and other suppressors of its kind) are astonishingly quiet due to these replaceable series of wipes used instead of baffles.

I was wondering if these wipes would work in TPU in material and if anyone has toyed with this concept in the 3D2A community already?

Imagine just using a threaded tube and putting these wipes in with some 3D printed spacers between!

      Possibly if you use stainless steel mesh as a reinforcing layer within the silicone. I used a silicone baffle in some smoke grenade designs to reduce flare up, however silicone alone wasnt enough and was being ripped apart and yetted from the canisters. Once I added stainless mesh used for screen doors it worked well. The problem is see with this, is the mesh would need a hole drilled through it which means the area of the silicone that would sheer away would still be left unsupported.
