{"product_id":"an543","title":"AN543 = Steel Bench Block 3-7\/8\" x 3-7\/8'' x 3\/4''","description":"\u003cp\u003eEconomy Steel Bench Block \/ Anvil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot fancy. Just tough.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese economy steel bench blocks are the no-nonsense work surface your bench has been asking for. They're not polished European precision anvils. You might see tooling marks or a bit of character right out of the casting, but they do the one thing that matters: give you a solid, flat surface for shaping, flattening, riveting, texturing, and pounding metal.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse it for doming, planishing, bending, flattening or as a reliable partner under whatever you're hammering, setting, or forming. The weight and solid steel construction keep your work from bouncing around, so your bench skills (not dimples in the block) do the talking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn short: these blocks aren't gorgeous, they're practical. And for everyday jewelry, metalwork, and hobby projects, they get the job done without a fancy price tag.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis block measures 3-7\/8\" x 3-7\/8\" and is 3\/4\" thick.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt has a Rockwell hardness of 46-50.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e*All of the bench blocks will have oil (or cosmoline) on them to prevent rust. You can degrease it if you like but just make sure you wipe it down after use and apply a little oil if you store it away.*\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/www.fdjtool.com\/an544-rubber-base-for-3-3-4-x-3-3-4-steel-bench-bl.html\"\u003erubber base\u003c\/a\u003e for deadening sound is available.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"MRB PRODUCTS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51103589466397,"sku":"AN543","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0977\/1044\/0733\/files\/an543-l1.jpg?v=1774901680","url":"https:\/\/fdjtool.com\/products\/an543","provider":"FDJtool","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
