I didn't get dimensions, but their response was "they will work".
I decided to buy some and let other know about them
Thickness wise they are identical to Forster rings so a perfect match in that regard.
They are a smaller diameter that the Forsters so the ball catch in the press does not hold them in the same way. I have only used them a bit at this point but this caused no issues. If you bench or press set up was not solid I suspect the dies might move around as only friction is holding in place.
They are nicely finished with a attractive black . The screw is a little allen head screw and I had no problems with them
They would be a good replacement lock ring in a standard press as well
I did not use the little wrench
