Doming Plate, Hardened Steel — Flat Dapping Block with 14 Half Spheres, 125 × 65 × 25 mm

Form perfect domes and hollows in sheet metal with this hardened steel dapping block, essential for detailed jewellery fabrication.

What it does

This robust, rectangular steel block offers a stable foundation for shaping precious metals. Its precisely machined hemispherical cavities, ranging in size, allow you to gradually form domes and hollows using a dapping punch and hammer. The hardened steel construction ensures durability and resists deformation, providing consistent results across all 14 depressions for repeatable shaping without the need for mounting.

How to use it

• Place sheet metal over your chosen cavity.
• Gently tap with a dapping punch and hammer.
• Wipe clean after use to maintain the finish.

Who it's for

An indispensable tool for UK-based bench jewellers, silversmiths, and metalsmiths needing to create precise domed components. It streamlines the process of forming bezels, earring backs, and decorative elements, replacing the need for multiple individual forming stakes for this specific task.
