For bench jewellers and silversmiths forming oval bangles to repeatable sizes. This stepped cast iron mandrel provides four distinct oval profiles, removing the guesswork of a tapered tool and ensuring consistent geometry during hammer forming. It's the ideal forming tool for batch production work.
Key features
- Four graduated steps provide distinct, repeatable sizes for bangle forming.
- True oval cross-section maintains correct bangle geometry on every step.
- Heavy-duty cast iron construction withstands repeated hammer forming.
- Square tang ensures a secure, non-slip grip when held in a bench vice.
- Smooth, machined working surface helps prevent marring of softer metals.
Who it's for
A core forming tool for UK silversmiths, bench jewellers, and jewellery makers working with silver, copper, and other non-ferrous metals. It is also suitable for apprentices and students learning fundamental shaping techniques.
