Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.314

The Redding Titanium Nitride Bushing/.314 is a precision neck-sizing bushing designed for reloaders who want reduced friction and extended tool life on their reloading press. This .314" bushing features a titanium nitride coating applied over heat-treated steel, creating a harder, more durable working surface than standard bushings. If you're running a Redding bushing die setup and want to improve sizing performance and longevity, this upgrade delivers real benefits without changing your workflow.

Titanium nitride coating serves two practical purposes: it increases surface hardness to resist wear during repeated sizing cycles, and it reduces friction between the bushing and your brass, which means easier operation and potentially less sizing pressure needed from your press. Over the course of reloading hundreds or thousands of rounds, that friction reduction adds up to less fatigue and smoother, more consistent sizing.

The .314" diameter makes this bushing suitable for cartridges in that neck-size range. Redding manufactures these bushings in .001" increments across their full lineup, so finding the exact fit for your caliber is straightforward. Whether you're working up precision rifle loads or maintaining consistency on your reloading bench, a quality bushing is one of those components that works quietly in the background but directly affects the uniformity of your ammunition.

Frequently Asked Questions

What calibers use a .314" bushing?

The .314" bushing is sized for cartridges with neck diameters in that range. Consult your specific Redding die documentation or reloading manual to confirm the correct bushing size for your caliber, as proper fit is essential for consistent sizing.

How does titanium nitride coating improve bushing performance?

The titanium nitride coating increases the hardness of the bushing surface, helping it resist wear over many reloading cycles. It also reduces friction during the sizing process, which means your press requires less force and the bushing experiences less stress during operation.

Can I use this bushing with my existing Redding die?

This bushing is designed to work with Redding bushing-style dies. Verify that your die is a bushing die before purchasing, and confirm that the .314" size matches your cartridge's neck diameter requirements.

What's included?

You receive the single titanium nitride bushing. Installation into your Redding bushing die follows standard Redding procedures outlined in your die manual.
