For Dillon Press Roller Handles
This foam grip cushions your hand yet provides good "feel" when seating primers.
Fits These Dillon Roller Handles: †
• Dillon Plastic Roller Handle (#22183) for RL 550B and XL 650 presses.
• Dillon Aluminum Roller Handle (#17950) for RL 550B and XL 650 presses.
• Dillon Roller Handle (#17918) on RL 1050, Super 1050 and SL 900 presses. **
† May fit other roller handles that are 1″ diameter and approximately 4″ to 4.5″ long.
NPVC Foam
This foam grip is made from NPVC, a foam rubber material known for its soft, comfortable feel, high durability and excellent vibration dampening qualities.
"Buffed" Finish
The foam surface goes through a "buffing" process, resulting in a sponge-like feel and appearance. The grip ends are radiused and also have a buffed finish. The shape blends perfectly with Dillon Roller Handles.
Yes! The Foam Grip Fits MEC Shotshell Loaders
I test fit the Foam Grip on my old MEC 600 "Jr" Shotshell Loader. The foam will stretch to conform to the finger grooves of the plastic MEC grip (#309-C). Although the Foam Grip is longer (4") than the MEC grip (3-1/4" long), the extra length will cover more of the operating handle ... providing additional comfort for larger hands. It should also fit the wooden Handle Grip (#8400) on certain newer model MEC Presses … but I have not yet tested it.
NEW! Fits Inline Fabrication Roller Handles
I just test fit the Foam Grip on a press equipped with an ERGO Roller Handle manufactured by Inline Fabrication. The foam will stretch to fit the 1.25″ diameter of the larger end of the handle while still fitting the 1.0″ diameter inner end of the handle. You may find that the installed length of the Foam Grip is slightly longer than the roller handle. We recommend installing it, marking the length to cut, then removing it to cut off the extra length. When reinstalling, slide the cut end on first so that it is against the arm and the uncut radiused end is even with the larger end of the handle. This will result in a more "finished" appearance.
** The Dillon 1050 roller handle is larger diameter than the 550/650 roller handles. Although the Foam Grip will stretch to fit, the resulting increase in handle diameter may be too large to be comfortable for medium or small hands.
