Pyrex hopper for all Dillon Powder Measures
The Dillon Hoppers come in three sizes.
They come with a custom cap that has an O-ring to seal the hopper and help keep moisture out. They also come with a custom baffle to insure consistent powder drops.
The Standard size replicates the volume of the plastic hopper supplied by Dillon Precision.
The Medium Size holds 30% more and is the largest size that will fit on the RL1050 / Super 1050 presses.
There is an adapter to allow the use of the Dillon Powder Alarm (also works for the ImmortoBot Low Powder Sensor).
Why Pyrex ?
Because many of the modern smokeless powders are more corrosive than the older ones. Powders like TiteGroup, Winchester Super Handicap and IMR 700x will attack the reservoir if left in and eventuality discolor and erode the plastic tube. Several people have mentioned that the Hornady plastic melts so bad they have fallen out and spilled powder everywhere.
Even those powders that aren’t corrosive will still discolor if left in for extended periods of time. Pyrex is the same material used in laboratories and is not affected. The hopper will remain clear not only enabling you to see what’s going on but also makes the machine look better.
It also helps eliminate static electricity issues as well.
