Disc Cutters for Jewellery Forming

Disc Cutters for Jewellery Forming

Our jewellery disc cutters are essential for jewellers working with silver, copper, gold filled metal, and aluminium sheet. These tools are designed to produce perfectly shaped blanks used for pendants, earrings, and other detailed metalwork, and are a go-to in workshops across Australia.

Disc cutters pair well with mandrels, soldering kits, and jewellery pliers, and are often used alongside solder paste, casting wax, or forming tools like anvils and hammers. They’re suitable for working with various metals and alloys, including when prepping pieces for gemstone settings or adding components like jump rings, bails, and clasps.

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What metals can I use in a disc cutter?

Most disc cutters are suited for soft non-ferrous metals like silver, copper , brass, and aluminium sheet, generally up to 1mm thick depending on the cutter.

2. How do I avoid damaging the cutting edges?

Use emery paper to deburr metal before cutting, and apply light oil or silverclean for lubrication. Always match the punch size carefully and avoid excessive force.

3. Do I need a press with my disc cutter?

While some cutters can be used manually, for consistent results (especially with harder metals) we recommend pairing the disc cutter with a hydraulic press or a compatible drill press setup.Top of Form
