[QUOTE="PddPdd, post: 2788219, member: 111799"] As Dr. Vette pointed out, the heat sink needs to have two things to work: 1) adequate physical contact with the item it is removing heat from and 2) the material in contact needs to have good thermal conductivity. (i.e. copper or similar good thermal conductive material). Annealers in general should not be adding enough heat to affect anything other than the neck and shoulder area of the brass. So a good heat sink feature is probably not a necessity unless the heat is not being applied in a controlled way. [/QUOTE]
