Ring and Hoop Press by Wubbers-Transverse 14

The Wubbers Ring and Hoop Press – Transverse 14 Pattern is a quality steel, 2-part die system with an outer sleeve that lets you quickly form patterned square or round rings and hoops without the need for an expensive hydraulic press. Designed for use with all types of wire, this press produces textured rings and hoops ranging from 13 mm (1/2") inside diameter up to 36 mm (1-3/8") outside diameter.

To use, join the ends of your wire, shape it on a mandrel, and place it in the bottom die while seated in the outer sleeve. The top and bottom inner dies each feature a pin that fits into a groove on the outer sleeve, ensuring perfect alignment every time. Place the top die over the ring and strike it with a suitable mallet—your wire ring is shaped in seconds.
