Ring Clamp

A ring clamp is a specialized tool commonly used in jewelry-making. It is designed to hold a ring securely in place while you work on it, providing stability and flexibility to execute precise jewelry-making techniques.

The main advantage of a ring clamp is that it firmly grips the ring without causing any damage to the metal or other materials. This allows you to manipulate the ring as much as you need without worrying about it slipping and sliding around. It also allows you to have both hands free to work on the ring, instead of needing one hand to hold it steady.

Another benefit of using a ring clamp is that it keeps your fingers out of harm’s way. When working with sharp tools or using chemicals to clean or polish the ring, a ring clamp ensures that your fingers remain safe and protected from potential injuries.

Ring clamps come in different shapes and sizes to accommodate different types of rings. Some clamps are designed to hold the ring at the shank or the base, while others are designed to hold the ring from the inside or the top. This allows for maximum flexibility when working on different types of rings.

Whether you are resizing a ring, setting stones, soldering, or cleaning it, a ring clamp is an essential tool that every jeweler should have in their toolkit. It allows for precision and accuracy in your work, without compromising on the safety and integrity of the ring. So, if you are serious about jewelry-making and want to achieve professional results, investing in a quality ring clamp is a must.
