Cast iron anvil holder (solid cast steel construction) designed for heavy use and precise shaping Key benefits Heavy-duty construction: Solid cast steel manufactured with a high-temperature hardening process to resist impact during welding and forging. Built to last for home, garage, and industrial use. Reliable hardness: Anvil base material has a hardness of 40 HRC or more, providing a stable, durable work surface that resists deformation under repeated blows. Smooth, usable surface: Finished surface allows accurate shaping and predictable hammer strikes so you can form parts to the shape you need. Two working ends for more versatility: Available with both round (horn) and flat ends. The round horn is ideal for smoothing, bending, shaping, fitting, punching and turning; the flat/hard end is suited for punching and turning hardware and flattening work. Multi-purpose performance: Designed for hammering, straightening, shaping, riveting, flattening, forging and other common metalworking tasks. How this product solves problems Prevents workpiece damage: A hardened, smooth surface reduces marring and gives consistent rebound, improving control and finish quality. Stands up to heavy use: High-temperature hardened cast steel resists impact and wear from repeated hammering, welding splatter and workshop environments. Reduces tool swaps: Two different horn profiles let you switch between bending/round forming and flat shaping without changing anvils. Typical applications and scenarios Automotive garage: Use the rounded horn to reshape a bent brake line or form custom brackets; use the flat face to flatten and align sheet-metal panels or hardware during repairs. Metal fabrication and blacksmithing: Hammer, forge, and shape small to medium-sized workpieces; the hardened base holds up to punching, riveting and turning operations. Home repair and carpentry support: Aid in forming and fitting metal fittings, flattening rivets, or straightening small structural pieces during DIY or maintenance tasks. Who will benefit Metalworkers and blacksmiths needing a reliable bench anvil for shaping and forging Mechanics and garage owners performing metal repair, panel work, or bracket fabrication Contractors, carpenters and maintenance technicians requiring a durable tool for onsite repairs Material and functional details Material: Solid cast steel (cast iron anvil holder style) Hardening: High-temperature hardening process applied Hardness: Base hardness of 40 HRC or more Design: Smooth surface; available with round (horn) and flat working ends Functions: Hammering, straightening, shaping, punching, turning, riveting, flattening, forging Durability and quality Professional-grade construction intended for repeated workshop and industrial use Suitable for construction, carpentry, machine maintenance and home repair environments Notes for use Mount securely to a stable base or bench to maximize performance and safety.
