A robust manual ring stretcher designed for controlled resizing of plain metal bands on the jeweller's bench.

What it does

This tool precisely expands rings using a screw-driven mechanism, offering a gentler alternative to hammering. Its hardened steel segmented mandrel, precisely machined for accuracy, gradually increases the ring's diameter without deforming its profile. The ergonomic T-handle provides leverage for controlled, incremental adjustments, ensuring a secure fit for customer repairs and custom work. The polished metal construction signifies its durability for daily workshop use.

How to use it

  • Place the ring onto the segmented mandrel.
  • Turn the T-handle to gradually expand the ring.
  • Wipe clean after use to maintain the finish.

Who it's for

Essential for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and repair technicians working with plain bands. This tool is ideal for those moving beyond basic resizing or seeking a more controlled method than a hammer. It's a practical addition for apprentices and hobbyists needing a reliable, bench-ready solution.

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.
