Precision Hardy Hole Fit – This forming cone mandrel is designed for a precise, vertical fit into a standard 1-inch square hardy hole on an anvil. It can also be securely mounted in a vise, providing a stable, non-rotating base for forging.
Forge Consistent Rings & Scrolls – Engineered as a forging aid for creating smooth, uniform conical rings and scroll shapes from bar stock. It offers a more consistent and controlled forming surface compared to a traditional anvil horn, ideal for repeatable projects.
Smooth, Groove-Free Design – Features a completely smooth cone surface without a "tong" groove. This design, paired with its 3-inch long square shank, ensures a firm, secure fit in the hardy hole and allows for unobstructed metal shaping.
Durable Professional Specifications – Crafted from heavy-duty 1018 steel to withstand high forging temperatures. Coated with protective blacksmith's hot wax for longevity. Dimensions: total length 13.31" (10" cone + 3" shank), base diameter 4", tapering to 1/4".
Versatile Metalworking Tool – A professional-grade mandrel for shaping precise conical forms, perfect for blacksmiths, bladesmiths, and metal artists seeking to create consistent, high-quality forged scrolls, rings, and decorative elements.
