Redding Reloading Titanium Carbide Die Set

Titanium carbide differs considerably from other carbides, and is the ideal material for resizing cartridge cases. Titanium carbide has the highest hardness of any readily available carbide. The difference is in the microstructure. Viewed under a microscope it appears smooth and rounded, which presents a slippery non-galling surface, ideal for lubeless resizing of cartridges. Two types of die sets are available. The conventional three (3) die set includes the titanium carbide sizing die, expander die and bullet seating die with built-in crimp. The Pro (progressive) Series Die Set is a special three (3) die set designed for use in progressive machines. An expander die is not included in these sets as the most popular progressive machines expand the case mouth at the powder drop station. Progressive die sets are supplied with a profile crimp die (or taper crimp die if the cartridge headspaces on the case mouth) because the best possible crimp is attained after the bullet is seated. All Pro Series Die Sets are designed with a special large radius at the mouth of the seating and crimping dies for easy case entry.
