Turban Heavy Präzipress 140 mm – top-tier reloading press with maximum stiffness
The Turban Heavy Präzipress 140 mm is a highly precise single-stage press using linear-guidance technology with maximum centring accuracy between the shell-holder and the die mount. The press is built around a massive O-frame structure with three hardened guide columns between the base and head plates. A centring slide runs on these columns and keeps the ram perfectly centred over the full length of travel. This creates a triple guide across the entire stroke height instead of the usual single guide in the base plate.
Conventional cast presses typically achieve accuracy on the order of about 0.1 mm. The Präzipress reduces this play to roughly 0.01 mm, making it approximately ten times more precise. That results in an exactly concentric feed of the case into the die, free from backlash, offset or angular error.
The Turban Heavy Präzipress is manufactured entirely in a German engineering workshop. All components are made from solid, high-strength material, CNC machined, precision-ground and hard-chromed. The linear guides and hinge pins of the press run in wear-resistant, maintenance-free plain bearing bushes.
Features
- O-frame press with three-column linear guidance
- Centring slide for backlash-free travel over the entire stroke
- Ram travel 140 mm, press window height 170 mm
- Maximum parallelism between die and shell holder
- Guide and ram columns as well as hinge pins precision-ground, hard-chromed and hardened to approx. 68 HRC
- Ram and guide columns 30 mm diameter for extreme stiffness
- Patinated surface finish, edges smoothly radiused
- Maintenance-free, replaceable plain bearing bushes made from high-quality Misumi solid-lubricant material
- Symmetrical construction with linear force transmission to the case—no tipping moment
- Precise top-stop at the upper dead centre for consistent headspace and constant seating depth
- No over-travel, no spring-back, no reversal play
- Primer waste disposal channel inside the ram leading directly to the collection tray
- Head plate thread 1 1/2 × 12 UNF, with reducing bushings to 1 1/4 × 12 UNF and 7/8 × 14 UNF
- Shell-holder mount 7/8 × 14 UNF, compatible with standard shell holders from RCBS and Triebel
- Handle can be fitted left or right
- High-strength mounting to the bench supplied with screws and washers
- Operates like a conventional reloading press—no re-learning required
Applications
• Benchrest and long-range shooters
• Precision load development and calibration work
• Heavy calibres and large-volume cases such as .338 Lapua Magnum or .50 BMG
• For uncompromisingly precise reloading results
