What calibres and cartridges are compatible with the Redding 49356 Size Button Kit?

This kit is strictly engineered for .35 calibre bottleneck cartridges with a nominal diameter of .358 inches, such as the .35 Remington, .358 Winchester, .35 Whelen, and .350 Remington Magnum. It will not function on smaller or larger diameters like .30 cal, .338 cal, or 9.3mm, which require their own dedicated part numbers.

Which Redding dies work with this free-floating carbide size button kit?

The Model 49356 is designed to fit standard Redding Full Length Sizing Dies, Standard Neck Sizing Dies, and Type S Bushing Sizing Dies. Please note that it is not compatible with Redding Competition Bushing Neck Sizing Dies, which require dedicated series kits.

Do I need to use inside-neck lubricants when using this solid carbide size button?

No inside-neck lubrication is required when using this upgrade. The ultra-hard, highly polished solid carbide construction allows the button to slide smoothly through the case neck, eliminating the messy lubrication and subsequent cleaning steps.

Does this mechanical reloading component require any Australian electrical or SAA/RCM certifications?

As the Redding 49356 is a purely mechanical reloading tool component with no electrical power requirements, 240V compatibility, AU plug standards, and Australian SAA/RCM regulatory electrical certifications do not apply.

Carbide Size Button - Redding 49356

The Redding 35 Cal. Carbide Size Button Kit (Model #49356) is an internal die upgrade engineered to enhance brass concentricity and streamline workflow during rifle cartridge resizing. Built for bottleneck cartridge cases, this mechanical reloading component replaces the standard steel expander button on compatible Redding dies. Its free-floating design allows the polished carbide expander to self-centre inside the case neck during the sizing stroke, which minimises case neck runout and brass stretch. The solid carbide construction slides smoothly through the inside of case necks without requiring inside-neck lubrication, eliminating the need for subsequent neck lube cleaning steps.

Key Features

Self-Centring Free-Floating Action: Floats directly on the decapping rod to self-centre within the case neck, reducing runout and maintaining cartridge concentricity.
Solid Carbide Construction: Ultra-hard, polished carbide material expands case necks smoothly without inside-neck lubrication.
Wear-Resistant Longevity: Built for continuous, high-volume brass processing without duty-cycle limitations.
Broad Die Compatibility: Integrates directly into Redding Full Length Sizing Dies, Neck Sizing Dies, and Type S Bushing Sizing Dies.

Who is the Redding 35 Cal. Carbide Size Button Kit for?

Handloaders reloading .35-calibre hunting rifle cartridges — eliminates the inside-neck lubrication step on .35 Calibre bottleneck cases while reducing brass stretch through a free-floating carbide rifle sizing button kit weighing approximately 0.08 lbs.
Precision shooters reloading .358 Winchester and .35 Whelen — enhances cartridge concentricity and controls case neck runout across .35 Calibre cases using a free-floating carbide sizing button kit that self-centres inside compatible Redding sizing dies.

Less suitable for: Reloading non-.35-calibre brass (such as .30 cal, .338 cal, or 9.3mm) or use in Redding Competition Bushing Neck Sizing Dies; these setups require calibre-matched expander assemblies or dedicated Competition-series sizing kits.
