The Elite Set includes three highest-quality, stainless steel Expanding Ring Mandrels and a hex key. It serves the a large range of common ring sizes and offers significant cost savings compared to purchasing separately.
These Expanding Ring Mandrels were custom-designed by Patrick Adair to meet a ring maker's special needs. The varied steps offer plenty of space to work on many styles and sizes of rings. The expanding aspect of the tool holds a ring blank securely, allowing for a high level of precision during all phases of ring making. These mandrels withstand sanding abrasion much longer than regular steel and will not rust. Each shaft is 1/2" in diameter and is designed to work in a lathe or a drill. The length was kept short (3") so the full tool remains true while spinning.
1. Small - Recommended for sizes 4.5, 5, 5.5, 6, 6.5, 7.
2. Medium - Recommended for sizes 7.5, 8, 8.5, 9, 9.5, 10, 10.5.
3. Large - Recommended for sizes 10.5, 11, 11.5, 12, 12.5, 13, 13.5.

Expanding Ring Mandrels - Elite 3 Set
I have a southbend lathe from the 1940's and it is a joy to use with these mandrels for ring making. The mandrels make it easy for turning the o.d. of the ring, holds the ring in place. Great product!
They work amazingly, and the sizes are actually pretty helpful. They’re even tough enough to stand up to repeated user error on my part.
The full set of expanding ring mandrels makes it so much easier to work on rings on the larger and smaller ends of the spectrum. Customer service was very helpful and responsive regarding any questions I had on this and other orders.
