🔧 What it does & how to use
These fully annealed titanium blanks are a bench essential for jewellers and hobbyists making their own soldering clamps and holding jigs. Titanium is prized for this job because solder does not stick to it, it stays strong even when heated red hot, it doesn't erode or flake with repeated use, and it transfers heat far more slowly than steel — so nearby joints on your piece stay cooler while you solder. Enamel doesn't stick to it either, making the same strips handy for enamelling work.
-
Cut to length: trim a strip to the size you need with metal shears or a jeweller's saw.
-
Shape: bend and file the strip into custom clamp jaws, tweezers, or a holding jig sized to your workpiece.
-
Solder: use the shaped titanium clamp to grip your piece while soldering — the solder won't stick to the titanium itself.
-
Enamel work: reuse the same clamps to hold pieces during enamelling, since enamel won't adhere to titanium.
-
Reshape as needed: refile or rebend the strip for your next job — the titanium keeps its strength through repeated heating.
