A six-piece mandrel set for wire work with corners: square profiles in 3, 5, 6, 8, 10 and 13 mm for forming square loops, links and findings that repeat accurately. A slot in each tip anchors the tail of the wire before you coil, so the first wrap sits as true as the last.

The mandrels are machined steel, sized for non-ferrous jewellery wire, and each squared base seats in a bench vice when you want both hands free; otherwise the contoured handle with its threaded collet swaps sizes in seconds. A tidy way to add square and rectangular elements to a wire-wrapping repertoire.

  • Includes six square-profile mandrels in 3, 5, 6, 8, 10, and 13 mm sizes.
  • Each mandrel tip features a slot to securely anchor the start of your wire whilst coiling.
  • The squared base of each mandrel allows for secure mounting in a bench vice.
  • A comfortable, contoured handle with a threaded collet allows for quick mandrel changes.
  • Machined from steel for durability when forming non-ferrous jewellery wires.

Common questions at the bench

How do I make jump rings with it?
Wind the wire round the mandrel in tight, even turns, each touching the last, keeping the same tension throughout. If the mandrel has a slot or hole at the tip, use it to hold the wire end as you start. Slide the coil off and cut through it along its length, with a jeweller's saw or flush cutters, to free the rings.
What wire can I use?
If this product's description names a wire type or thickness, stay within it. Soft (annealed) wire winds more evenly and with less effort; harder wire springs back, so its rings come out a little larger than the mandrel.
How do I get matching rings?
Wind every coil for a batch on the same mandrel or step, with the same wire and the same tension. Change the mandrel, the step or the wire and the rings change size too.
How should I look after it?
Wipe the mandrels clean after use and keep them dry. If they came with a case, keep them in it, so the forming surfaces do not knock against other tools and pick up nicks that would mark the wire.
