Bezel & Ring Forming Mallet — 1 lb (1 Pound) Brass Head, Metalsmith Jewellery Hammer
This 1lb brass mallet is essential for precise metal forming and adjustment on your workbench. It delivers controlled force to shape precious metals without leaving unsightly marks.
What it does
The substantial brass head provides the necessary weight for effective metal movement, whether you're closing bezels or sinking settings. Its smooth, flat striking faces are carefully machined to ensure even contact with softer metals like gold and silver, preventing accidental damage. The solid hardwood handle, fitted securely through the head, offers a comfortable and balanced feel for repetitive tasks.
How to use it
- Position your workpiece securely for striking.
- Strike with controlled, deliberate blows.
- Wipe clean after use; store dry.
Who it's for
This is a fundamental tool for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths. It's ideal for those moving beyond beginner stages, replacing aggressive steel hammers for delicate tasks like forming rings on a mandrel or fine-tuning bezels.
