🔧 What it does & how to use

This is hardened and tempered carbon steel wire stock for the clock repairer's bench, supplied as an assortment of diameters so you can pick the closest match to the job rather than buying single sizes. It's used to re-pivot worn wheel arbors and trundle pinions, and to turn new balance staffs, restoring parts that would otherwise need full replacement.

• Select: choose the wire closest in diameter to the pivot or staff you're replacing
• Cut: part off a length longer than the finished piece to allow for turning and fitting
• Mount: hold the wire in a lathe or turns
• Turn: reduce it down to the exact pivot diameter and shoulder length required
• Fit: harden and fit the finished pivot or staff to the wheel, pinion or balance as needed
