Triangular jump rings and angular wire components are awkward to form freehand; wound on a mandrel they come out identical every time. This set gives you six triangular formers from 4 mm up to 14 mm, so a whole run of findings — jump rings, links, decorative elements — comes off the tool with the same crisp profile. Our wire gauge guide helps when planning stock for a batch.

Each steel mandrel locks into the handle's set-screw chuck, with a flat ground on the shank so it cannot rotate under winding tension. A slot at the tip anchors the wire end before you start the wrap. Six sizes, one handle, and a small footprint in the tool drawer.

  • Features six interchangeable steel mandrels covering a 4mm to 14mm size range.
  • The supplied handle uses a set-screw chuck to securely grip each mandrel bit.
  • Each mandrel blade has a triangular profile for forming sharp, consistent loops.
  • A slot at the tip of each mandrel secures the wire end to make wrapping easier.
  • Mandrel shanks are flattened on one side to prevent rotation within the handle.

Who it's for

A practical tool for UK bench jewellers, jewellery students, and wire artists creating their own findings or distinctive wirework designs. It is ideal for producing small batches of triangular jump rings and decorative components with a consistent profile.

George F. ★★★★★

Making identical triangular loops used to drive me crazy, but these mandrels make it effortless—I just finished a batch of 6 mm rings that are perfectly uniform. The handle is a nice touch, keeps my fingers from getting sore during a long session.

Richard K. ★★★★★

I’ve been fighting uneven triangular loops for months, but these formers finally give me crisp corners every single time. The 4 mm size is my go-to for delicate earrings, and the handle makes twisting the wire onto it feel effortless.

Joseph B. ★★★★★

The size range is perfect for earring components and small clasps, and the handle makes twisting the wire way less painful on my fingers. I’ve knocked out a dozen matching triangles in an afternoon that actually line up when I solder them.
