What press models are compatible with the Frankford Arsenal FX-10 #1 Shell Plate?

This shell plate is built exclusively to mount onto the proprietary 10-station gear-driven hub of the Frankford Arsenal X-10 progressive reloading press. It is precision-machined specifically for the rim profiles of .38 Special and .357 Magnum cartridges and cannot be used on other press brands.

Does the Frankford Arsenal FX-10 #1 Shell Plate require any electrical certifications or 240V mains compliance in Australia?

No electrical compliance, SAA approval, RCM certification, or 240V plug configurations are required for this product. Because the FA-FX10SP1 is a purely mechanical reloading press accessory, standard Australian electrical regulatory requirements do not apply.

How do the integrated features of the FA-FX10SP1 shell plate help prevent powder spillage during high-volume reloading?

The plate features built-in premium ball bearings designed to deliver ultra-smooth indexing rotation on your X-10 press. This significantly dampened vibration and rotational snap reduces powder spillage from charged cases and prevents bullet tipping when running high-speed reloading sessions.

What is included with the Frankford Arsenal FX-10 #1 Shell Plate to protect it during storage?

The shell plate ships with a dedicated protective polymer storage case designed to keep the exposed underside steel indexing bearings clean and lubricated. Storing the 1.9 lb stainless steel plate in this case protects it from workbench debris and carbon fouling when you switch to other calibers.

Key Features

Who is the Frankford Arsenal FX-10 #1 Shell Plate (.357 Mag / .38 Spl) for?

High-volume handgun ammunition reloaders — requires the specialized 1.9 lbs high-grade stainless steel shell plate to interface directly with the proprietary 10-station gear-driven hub of the X-10 progressive press, ensuring ultra-smooth indexing for .38 Special and .357 Magnum cartridge production.

Less suitable for: Reloaders processing larger rifle cartridges that exceed the maximum case length threshold of a .308 Winchester or 30-06 case, which exceeds the mechanical limits of this progressive press accessory and requires a larger, caliber-specific shell plate type.
