Home-made jump rings are only as good as the former they were wound on. These three stainless steel mandrels give you a run of fixed, stepped diameters — plus a fine point for the smallest loops — so every coil you wind comes off round, true and matched to the last.

Stainless steel holds its shape under repeated wire tension where softer formers slowly wear undersize, and the red textured handles give a secure grip while you keep the winding even. A quiet workhorse for anyone who makes their own findings.

  • Set of three mandrels with distinct, stepped diameters for various ring sizes.
  • Stainless steel construction maintains its shape under repeated wire tension.
  • Each step provides a consistent, cylindrical forming surface for uniform coils.
  • Red, textured handles offer a secure grip whilst working.
  • Includes one fine-point mandrel for delicate, small-diameter loops.

Who it's for

An essential tool for UK bench jewellers, wire-wrapping artists, and silversmiths who make their own findings. Also well-suited for students and hobbyists who need to achieve consistent results in their wirework projects.

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.
