Italian Steel Bending Block with Matching Punch Set on Stand

Part # 125.164 14 In Stock Weight -- lb -- g
Current price $255.00

This matched Italian-made bending block set is designed to assist goldsmiths and metalsmiths in forming tubing, ring shanks, and half-round shapes with precision and consistency. The flat half-round forming block features twelve different half-round grooves, each matched with its own dedicated 100 mm (4") length steel round rod. Rod diameters are precisely sized slightly smaller than their corresponding half-round channels to accommodate the metal being formed.

The complete set includes a fitted stand base, keeping rods organized and accessible at the bench. Made in Italy from expertly hardened tool steel, this set represents professional-grade quality built for regular workshop use.

Note: When the Italian version is out of stock, Otto Frei will substitute the Durston version (Part #125.162) at the same price — the tools are functionally identical.

The bending block is also available separately — see Part #125.163.
