The EGW Solution for Your Performance 1911
The secret to a competition-winning trigger is reducing friction and mass. Here’s why our titanium hammer strut is the superior choice:
Faster Lock Time: Titanium is significantly lighter than steel, reducing the reciprocating mass in your fire control group. This results in a faster lock time—the time between the sear releasing the hammer and the firing pin striking the primer—which is a key advantage in precision shooting.
Machined from Solid Titanium: This strut is CNC-machined from a solid bar of American titanium, offering an incredible strength-to-weight ratio that is far superior to any steel or MIM factory part.
Naturally Corrosion Proof: Titanium is impervious to rust and corrosion, ensuring a lifetime of flawless performance in any environment.
Proudly Made in the USA: Every component is manufactured in our Quakertown, PA facility, guaranteeing the highest level of quality control.

1911 Hammer Strut FAQ
What is the benefit of a titanium hammer strut?
A titanium hammer strut is significantly lighter than its steel counterpart. This reduction in weight lowers the overall mass of the hammer assembly, allowing it to move forward faster once released by the sear. This faster movement, known as "lock time," can be a measurable advantage in precision and competitive shooting.
Why doesn't this fit Sig Sauer 1911s?
Many Sig Sauer 1911s use a proprietary, non-standard mainspring housing and hammer geometry. A standard-pattern strut, like this one, will not have the correct length or clearance to operate smoothly and safely in most Sig 1911 designs.
Gunsmith Installation Recommended
For the safety and optimal performance of your firearm, we strongly recommend having this part installed by a professional gunsmith.

Flawless part. I like having strong parts in a 10mm 1911 just for peace of mind

I remember when 3 different companies used to make these, now I'm pretty sure, only EGW does. if you're a 'match' shooter, this is one component you must have, IMHO. decreased lock time means the bullet exits faster and closer to where you want it. a Ti' hammer strut, firing pin and 'speed' hammer will give the fastest lock time possible for the most accurate shot, period. a basic physical fact, not open to opinion. I have this part on every one of my competition guns.
