Durston 1017 Agile Elite C110mm Combo Rolling Mill with Reduction Gear - 128.1017

This 1017 Agile Elite C110mm combination rolling mill pairs a robust copper-finished frame with an expanded flat rolling area, wire grooves, and a 4:1 reduction gearbox to support demanding metal forming work. The revolving handle turns smoothly as metal feeds through the rolls, while the rear catch tray and included accessories help keep your workflow organized.

Features
  • Combination rolling mill configuration for both sheet and wire work in one compact unit.
  • Expanded flat rolling area designed to give more space for pattern plate and flat sheet rolling.
  • Integrated square wire rolling grooves on the main roll for forming a range of wire sizes.
  • Adjustable T-bar on the top of the mill for quick, controlled roll gap adjustments.
  • Ergonomic revolving handle designed to reduce effort and fatigue during longer rolling sessions.
  • Rear catch tray finished in white to improve visibility and make it easier to retrieve rolled pieces.
  • Groove pointer bar to help align metal accurately with the wire grooves.
  • 4:1 reduction gearbox that multiplies leverage for smoother, more controlled rolling.
  • Includes a suite of extension rolls, pattern plate, and rolling mill cover to expand forming options and protect the mill when not in use.

What our Experts Think
  • Compact professional combination mill: The Durston 1017 Agile Elite C110mm (128.1017) is designed for jewelers who need both flat sheet reduction and wire forming in a space-efficient, workshop-ready unit.
  • Effort-reducing gearbox advantage: A built-in 4:1 reduction gearbox significantly lowers rolling force, giving smoother, more controlled pressure for consistent metal thickness and surface finish.
  • Versatile 75mm flat rolling zone: Expanded flat area supports pattern plates and sheet work, making it suitable for texture transfer, thinning, and recycled metal processing.
  • Integrated wire groove system: Multiple precision square grooves (approx. 1–5 mm range) allow direct wire shaping without switching tools, improving studio efficiency.
  • Complete extension roller set included: Comes with D-shape and comfort-fit extension rollers, enabling additional profile forming options for rings and custom wire work.
  • Studio productivity focused design: Features like the T-bar adjustment, ergonomic revolving handle, and rear catch tray improve speed, alignment accuracy, and workflow cleanliness during repeated use.
  • Durston build reliability: Cast-frame construction with precision-machined rolls ensures long-term alignment stability and consistent performance under regular workshop loads.

Maintenance Tips
  • Clean rollers after every use: Remove metal dust from flat and wire grooves to prevent scoring and preserve precision rolling performance.
  • Light lubrication on gears: Regularly apply grease to the 4:1 reduction gearbox and oil adjustment points to maintain smooth, low-effort operation.
  • Protect extension rolls: Keep D-shape, comfort-fit, and square wire extensions free from debris to ensure accurate wire and profile forming.
  • Use gradual reductions: Avoid heavy single-pass compression to reduce stress on rollers, gearbox, and frame alignment.
  • Check roller alignment: Ensure rollers remain parallel for consistent sheet thickness and clean wire output.
  • Avoid contaminated metal: Only use clean, annealed material to prevent surface marking and groove damage.
  • Protect from corrosion: Store in a dry environment and apply a light anti-rust coating when idle.
  • Keep catch tray clean: Regularly clear the rear tray to prevent buildup that can interfere with workflow and cleanliness.
