Bangle & Bracelet Mandrel — 15 Inch Oval Cast Iron Steel, 38–76 mm Taper
Shape perfect oval bangles and bracelets with this substantial 15-inch steel mandrel. It provides a smooth, tapered surface for precise forming and sizing of your metalwork.
What it does
This robust cast iron mandrel offers a long, gradually tapering form, ideal for shaping and sizing oval bangles from 38mm up to 76mm. The extended length allows for incremental adjustments, giving you greater control as you hammer and form precious metals. Its precisely machined, smooth surface minimises the risk of scratching or marring your workpiece, ensuring a clean finish on silver, copper, and other non-ferrous metals.
How to use it
- Securely clamp the base to your workbench.
- Position your metal blank over the tapered end.
- Hammer gently, rotating the metal for even shaping.
Who it's for
An indispensable tool for UK silversmiths and jewellery makers specialising in bangles and bracelets. This longer mandrel offers superior control for professionals and serious hobbyists compared to shorter, standard forming stakes, streamlining the process of creating perfectly sized oval pieces.
