Broken Lee Press

[mmm...chicken]

I have a Lee single stage press with a broken handle. Is there anyone in Canada that can replace the handle or do I ship it state side?

Thanks in advance.

I order parts directly from LEE PRECISION. They have a parts list on their website. parts are cheap so usually they slide through customs no issues.

LEE press

Try Higginson Powders in Hawkesbury ON.

x2 on Higginsons. Chances are its covered by warranty as some parts have been identified as problematic. Try to get a photo and email over to Andrew at Higginsons explaining the problem. See what he says.

I had to get a new part last year. Lee shipped it free as it was under warranty - 2 years I think.

Call lee directly and tell them what broken , they will most likely warrinty it if it is under 2 years or if it the part is prone to brake

yes very nice ladies. I've ordered a few things directly and never had a problem. You know those Dies you never see in WSS, they have them, and trimmers and anything you want, and they ship promptly and its only $USD

If you broke the cheap aluminum link ( many have) and you have any fabrication skills I would suggest to fab up some steel ones. The replacement parts are just as weak as the ones that broke.

Fabricated?

This stands up well.

But Lee has recently instituted a 35% surcharge for orders outside the USA

35% for air mail charges. Tell them to use USPS.

Same here last year. Emailed in a pic and they sent the part out free of charge. If the handle broke from the toggle, make sure they send both halves of the toggle. Only one side on mine was actually "broken" but when I got the replacement part I couldn't assemble because the other half was bent, so I had to wait for the other half to be sent as well.
