DAA Primer Pickup Tubes are made of high quality aluminum, produced using custom-made extrusion tools and controlled for accuracy and finish. Close attention is paid to the consistency of the internal and external chamfering to ensure optimal feeding. The matt-finish anodizing makes identifying the primer size immediate: Blue for LARGE Primers, Red for SMALL.

The Pick-up end is engineered to provide an ergonomic shape, making it comfortable to grip in one’s hand. The wider, larger finger-support area, with its smooth support ring, prevents hand fatigue and cramping.

The tip has been redesigned and includes two “teeth” (vs one, as others do). Carefully designed deep slots provide just the right amount of flexibility. The dual teeth work in union to pick up the primer horizontally while creating just enough pressure to ensure a firm grip on the primer while they are picked up.

Both the Pickup and drop ends are made of translucent material making it easy to see the primers as they slide through the pipe ends. This is particularly handy when emptying the tube into your press, as you can easily see when they are all through.

When assembling your tubes, make sure you press the ends all the way down onto the pipe, as leaving a gap can create functional issues.
