Description
This medium expanding ring stretcher mandrel makes it easy to enlarge and size rings in the mid-range of sizes, in a compact format that tucks neatly into a drawer or tool roll. Once clamped, the mandrel expands smoothly as you tighten the center bolt, easing the shank out in small, controlled steps.

- Center bolt expansion tightened with the included hex key for even, controlled enlargement.
- Supports both gentle size adjustments and truing slightly out-of-round rings.

Notes
Place the ring over the mandrel, then tighten the center bolt gradually with the hex key to stretch the ring. Work in small increments and check the size frequently to avoid over-stretching, especially on soldered or stone-set rings.
