The Frankford Arsenal F-10 #0 Shell Plate is the piece that holds your cases in place as they move through the X-10 progressive press, and this one is cut for 9mm Luger and .38 Super. It's machined from solid stainless steel, so it shrugs off the kind of wear a high-volume handgun loading session dishes out. If you run both of those cartridges, this single plate covers you since they share the same case head dimensions.
What sets these plates apart from a basic flat shell plate is the integrated ball bearing design. That bearing lets the plate rotate and index smoothly from station to station, which keeps your cases upright and helps hold powder in the case instead of slinging it across the bench. Anyone who has chased spilled powder mid-session knows that is a real quality-of-life upgrade when you're trying to keep a steady rhythm.
The whole point of the F-10 shell plate system is fast swaps. When you're ready to jump from one cartridge family to another, you pull the plate and drop in the correct one for the job. Each plate is laser etched with its caliber markings, so there's no squinting or guessing which one you grabbed. Pair it with the matching tool head and you can go from running 9mm to another caliber without a lot of fuss.
The plate ships in a hinge-top storage case, which is a nice touch if you own more than one. Keeping each plate in its own case means they stay clean, protected, and easy to find instead of rattling around a drawer. For anyone building out a full caliber lineup on their X-10, the #0 is the natural starting point since 9mm is the round most progressive reloaders feed the most.
The #0 plate is set up for 9mm Luger and .38 Super. Both of those cartridges share the same case head size, so this one plate handles either without any changes. If you load a different caliber, you'll need the shell plate numbered for that cartridge family.
Yes. This plate is made specifically for the Frankford Arsenal X-10 progressive press, which you may also see marketed as the F-10 or FX-10. It drops right into that press and is not designed to fit other brands of presses.
The bearings let the shell plate rotate and index smoothly as it carries cases between stations. That smoother motion helps keep your cases upright and reduces powder spillage during a loading session. It's one of the main reasons these plates run cleaner than a basic flat plate.
It does. Each plate ships in a hinge-top storage case that keeps it clean and protected between uses. That's handy once you own a few plates and want to keep your caliber setups organized on the bench.
