Made from 20 gauge (0.81 mm) brass composed of 70% copper and 30% zinc, each blank is cut to size, edge-finished on a belt sander, annealed, and given a basic tumbled finish. The result is a malleable, workable blank that accepts forming, hammering, and surface treatment with minimal prep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eThis BT-2 size measures 2-1\/4\" in diameter by 7\/8\" wide, making it well-suited for larger wrist sizes. Available alongside 2\" diameter versions and in multiple widths, these blanks give metalsmiths and jewelers the flexibility to produce formed and hammered cuff bracelets for a range of wrist sizes.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eKeep in mind: when making convex (domed) forms, the doming process will reduce the finished diameter.
