For bench jewellers and repairers needing to resize plain bands, this manual ring stretcher offers controlled expansion without a full press. It provides an incremental alternative to hammer-stretching, reducing the risk of distorting the ring's profile whilst working on customer repairs.

Key features

  • Segmented steel mandrel expands to stretch rings from US size 2 to 14.
  • Mandrel is marked in whole and half US sizes from 2 to 14; UK sizes are letters, so convert a UK size before stretching.
  • T-handle operates a screw mechanism for gradual and controlled expansion.
  • Features a polished metal body and a secondary polymer grip handle for stability.
  • Suitable for enlarging plain bands made from gold, silver, and other non-ferrous metals.

Who it's for

A core tool for UK bench jewellers, jewellery repair workshops, and apprentices learning resizing techniques. Also useful for hobbyists and small-scale makers who require a reliable method for ring enlargement without investing in a hydraulic press.
