Drawplate Pulling Tongs — 10 Inch Forged Steel, Serrated Jaws for Wire Drawing

This 10-inch forged steel wire drawing tong provides a secure, consistent grip for pulling metal through a drawplate. It's engineered for precision wire reduction on the jeweller's bench.

What it does

These tongs are designed to firmly grasp wire ends, enabling controlled pulling through a drawplate for accurate gauge reduction. The deeply serrated jaws are precisely machined to bite into the metal, preventing slippage even under significant tension. This ensures a clean, even draw from start to finish, crucial for achieving consistent wire profiles. The robust forged steel construction guarantees durability and reliable performance through repeated use.

How to use it

• Insert wire end firmly into the serrated jaws.
• Apply steady, even pressure to pull wire through the drawplate.
• Clean jaws after use to maintain grip.

Who it's for

Essential for bench jewellers, silversmiths, and wire-workers in the UK who regularly reduce wire stock. This tool replaces less secure methods and works in tandem with drawplates, essential for creating precise wire diameters for findings, bezels, or decorative elements.
