COMPONENTS: Wads

The container wad has a decisive influence on the accuracy and performance of the cartridge.

For this reason UEE Cartuchería Deportiva, S.A.  manufactures the majority of the wads used in the assembly of its cartridge and this contributes to better integration of the production processes.

The mission of the container is multiple. On one hand it takes maximum advantage of the combustion of the gunpowder by means of a perfect internal seal at the moment of firing and, on the other, it contains the shot and travels with it in its trajectory inside the barrel – helping it to avoid being deformed by friction with the barrel walls. In addition, the container wad flexes its joining column between the two receptacles and thus contributes to a reduction in the recoil of the firearm.

The manufacture of UEE Cartuchería Deportiva, S.A. containers is performed by injection moulding of low-density polyethylene using the most advanced machinery and the latest technology in injection moulding. This guarantees a product of high quality and uniformity in its cartridge.
