Swage Forming Block — Steel, Half-Round, Square, Rectangular & V Grooves for Metal Shaping
One block, most of the profiles a bench needs. Lay wire or strip into the half-round, square, rectangular or V grooves and shape it directly with a hammer — the kind of forming that would otherwise mean owning and mounting several separate stakes.
It is milled from a single piece of steel, so it takes repeated hammer work without complaint, and the compact multi-sided shape sits flat and stable however you orient it. Suitable for gold, silver, copper and other non-ferrous metals, with machined grooves that keep every repeat consistent.
- Combines half-round, rectangular, square, and V-groove profiles in one block.
- Milled from a solid steel block to withstand repeated hammer work.
- Compact, multi-sided design provides a stable base on the bench during use.
- Machined grooves ensure consistent and repeatable shaping of wire and strip.
- Suitable for forming gold, silver, copper, and other non-ferrous metals.
