Achieve consistent bangle diameters with this cast iron stepped mandrel, ideal for forming round bracelets at the bench.

What it does

This robust, ten-inch steel mandrel provides four precisely machined, fixed diameters, eliminating the guesswork of tapered tools. Form repeatable bangle sizes from 2 to 2-3/4 inches with confidence. The square tang ensures a secure grip when mounted in a bench vise, allowing for controlled, forceful shaping of sheet metal and wire. Its solid construction offers durability for frequent use.

How to use it

  • Secure the tang firmly in a bench vise.
  • Hammer or form your metal around the desired step.
  • Wipe clean after use to prevent tarnish.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for UK silversmiths, bench jewellers, and jewellery students. It streamlines the production of identical bangles and bracelets, replacing the need for multiple individual mandrels or imprecise forming methods for batches.

Harper A. ★★★★★

The cast iron weight is the best part — it stays put on my bench block instead of sliding around while I hammer. Four steps cover pretty much every bangle size I make, and the tang fits my vise solidly. Bracelets come out round on the first try now.

Victoria ★★★★★
