This Quick Change Jaw Assembly (S-Large) from Forster Products is a replacement assembly for the S/LS shell holder jaws used with compatible Co‑Ax presses. It supports and indexes cases by contacting the base of the cannelure and is designed for spring-loaded, self-acting operation. The assembly contains the components required to swap a single side of the shell holder jaws for the listed size range.
Key Specifications
- The assembly is designated S-Large for use with compatible S/LS shell holder jaws.
- Holds rim diameters of .468" to .562" to accommodate larger case sizes in the listed range.
- Compatible with the Forster Co-Ax Press when used with S jaws (see item FP02827 compatibility note).
- The jaws are spring-loaded to support the case by contacting the base of the cannelure for positive extraction.
- The jaws operate in a self-acting manner, opening and closing on cartridge placement and releasing when the handle is raised.
- The complete assembly includes replacement 10-24 x 5/8″ button head screws (part 028271-020) for installation.
- Designed to allow a single-side swap without disassembling the entire shell holder jaws to change sizes.
