Curving a polished ring shank or bangle with steel jaws means refinishing afterwards; the nylon faces on these pliers move the metal and leave the polish alone. One jaw is concave, the other convex, so wire and strip form into smooth, even curves rather than a string of flats — the usual route to a clean shank ready to true on a ring mandrel.

The steel body is box-jointed, keeping the jaws aligned under proper pressure, and a double-leaf spring opens them again between bends. Blue PVC-coated handles give a settled grip. When the nylon faces eventually scar from use, they have done their job protecting your work.

  • One concave and one convex nylon jaw for forming uniform curves in wire and strip.
  • Non-marring nylon faces protect polished silver, gold, and other precious metals from scratches.
  • Durable box-joint steel construction ensures jaw alignment under pressure.
  • A double-leaf spring returns the jaws to the open position to reduce hand fatigue.
  • Blue PVC-coated handles provide a comfortable, secure grip during use.

Who it's for

An essential forming tool for UK bench jewellers, silversmiths, and apprentices working with precious metals. Also suitable for model makers and craftspeople who need to bend delicate wire and metal strip without damage.

Ava ★★★★★

Finally, no more buffing out scratches after shaping a ring—these nylon jaws really do keep the polish intact. The concave/convex pair grips the metal securely without marring the surface. I was able to curve a 2mm sterling shank in under a minute with zero refinishing needed.

Henry ★★★★★

The concave and convex jaws work exactly as described — I formed a silver bangle without any scratches, so no polishing needed afterwards. It's a solid, well-made tool that does exactly what it should.

Miles ★★★★★

These are a game changer for finishing rings; the nylon jaws really do keep the polish intact while bending. I was able to shape a stubborn sterling shank without any scratches or need for re-polishing.
