🟢 RATHBURN RING STRETCHER
🟢 RING ENLARGER SIZING EXPANDER TOOL
🟢 A Ring Stretcher, a basic way to enlarge jewelry rings, is the most economical and simplest method to stretch rings and it is easy to use.
🟢 The Rathburn fixture consists of 2 parts, a steel Collet Multi-Stepped Mandrel and Tapered Pin Expander.
🟢 Place the ring on the stepped collet, choose the size that the rings fits onto, then place the expansion collet on the nylon base.
🟢 Now insert the Tapered Pin Rod and gently tap the tapered steel Pin by using a mallet or hammer (light Impact).
🟢 Make sure not to oversize the ring, and cause it to break apart. Mandrel can be removed by simply tapping the opposite end.
Note: Care must be taken whenever stretching a ring.
🟢 Tool is not to be used with stone set rings, thin shanks, inspect for any solder joints that may break apart when stretching.
🟢 Tool works well with Bands, may need to anneal to soften the ring to afford expansion of the metal.
🟢 Generally this tool fixture will not expand more than 1 finger size.
