A hexagonal bangle formed on a round mandrel loses its corners. This 14" former keeps them: six flat faces support hexagonal wire or stock through hammer forming, so the flats stay flat and the corner angles stay crisp from first blow to last.

The mandrel is turned from smooth-sanded hardwood, which will not mar silver, copper, brass or other soft non-ferrous metals, and the full 355mm length gives working room across a range of bangle sizes, with space to move the piece along as each face is trued.

  • Solid hexagonal profile with six flat forming faces.
  • Crafted from smooth-sanded hardwood to prevent marring soft metals.
  • Maintains crisp corner angles and geometry when hammer-forming hexagonal stock.
  • Full 14-inch length provides an ample working surface for various bangle sizes.
  • All stock is held in the UK, ready for same-day dispatch.

Who it's for

A specialist tool for UK silversmiths and bench jewellers creating contemporary hexagonal-profile bangles and bracelets. Also suitable for craftspeople forming hexagonal shapes from copper, brass, and other non-ferrous metals who need to preserve a sharp, geometric profile during shaping.

Common questions at the bench

UK or US sizing?
Our steel ring mandrels carry both UK alphabetical and US numerical scales unless the product specifically notes UK-only or US-only in the description. Hardwood and aluminium mandrels are unmarked — use a separate ring sizer to measure.
Can I hammer directly against the mandrel?
Steel mandrels yes — that is what they are designed for. Hardwood mandrels are for forming and finishing only; hammering against them dents the wood and marks the workpiece. Aluminium mandrels: light planishing only, no forging.
What is a stepped mandrel for?
Stepped (tiered) mandrels let you work batches of rings or bangles in fixed standard sizes — useful for production work where you are making matched pairs or a series. Tapered mandrels suit one-off resizing where you need every size in between.
How do I store it without rust?
Wipe with a light camellia or 3-in-1 oil after wet work or polishing, then store in a dry drawer or wall rack. A small silica gel pack in the drawer is cheap insurance against humidity in unheated workshops.
