Q: What makes this model different?
A: It features a 4:1 reduction gearbox, making rolling easier and more controlled compared to standard manual mills, especially when working with thicker metals.

Q: What materials can it handle?
A: It is suitable for gold, silver, copper, brass, and other non-ferrous metals commonly used in jewelry production.

Q: Is it manual or powered?
A: It is a manual rolling mill, operated by hand but made easier through its gearbox system.

A: It combines professional Durston build quality with easier operation and multi-function capability, making it a strong all-round choice for jewelry makers who want versatility without switching machines.

Maintenance Tips

• Clean rollers after every use – Wipe the 110mm flat, wire grooves, and extension profiles immediately to prevent metal dust buildup and scoring on the hardened 64 HRC rolls.
• Protect with light oil when idle – Apply a thin rust-preventive oil film for storage; fully clean before use to avoid contaminating metal stock or affecting surface finish.
• Maintain 4:1 reduction gearbox – Periodically apply light lithium-based grease to keep torque smooth and reduce wear during frequent rolling operations.
• Keep grooves and extensions clear – Clean all square wire grooves and half-round extensions regularly to maintain precise wire shaping and avoid uneven rolling pressure.
• Avoid overloading thickness – Stay within recommended sheet capacity (~5.5–6mm) and reduce metal gradually in multiple passes instead of forcing heavy compression.
• Use only clean, annealed metal – Dirty or work-hardened material increases roller wear and reduces finish quality and accuracy.
• Check alignment regularly – Ensure even pressure across the full 110mm width to prevent tapering and long-term bearing stress.
• Secure mounting is essential – Bolt firmly to a rigid bench or stand to eliminate vibration and ensure precise rolling under torque.
• Store in dry conditions – Protect rollers, gears, and cast frame from humidity to prevent corrosion and preserve long-term precision.
• Never touch rollers with bare hands – Skin oils can mark precision-ground steel over time; handle with clean gloves or tools when possible.
