Oval Bangle Mandrel — Cast Iron, Tang, 10", 4 Steps: 1-7/8 × 1-3/4" to 2-3/4 × 2-1/2"

Batch bangle work needs sizes that repeat. This oval mandrel replaces the guesswork of a tapered form with four machined steps, each a true oval section, so every bangle formed on a given step matches the last — graduating from 1⅞" × 1¾" up to 2¾" × 2½".

Cast iron mass soaks up hammer forming without complaint, the machined surface helps keep softer metals unmarked, and the square tang locks into a bench vice so the tool stays put while you work around it. Overall length is 10 inches.

• 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.
