Leather Shot Bags

Accurate shaping and forming of metal sheets or blocks is an integral part of sheet metal fabrication. There are many dedicated tools to help the fabricator form custom shapes, and one of the oldest forms of metal shaping is to use a hammer or mallet and pound the metal by hand into a leather bag filled with shot which absorbs the blows to create shapes.  Leather shot bags are filled bags which are used in metal shaping. They are double stitched and reinforced with heavy thread through their perimeter. They are filled with silica sand or lead shot through a funnel and then sealed with a double Velcro closure. Woodward Fab offers leather shot pouches or bags in different sizes. We offer custom leather shot bags which are developed from several years of experience and expertise in making such handy and efficient fabrication tools.

  • Durable Top-Grain Leather Construction
  • Variety of Sizes for Different Projects
  • Heavy Duty Stitching for Longevity
  • Secure Double Velcro Closure
  • Fill with Lead Shot or Sand
  • Provides Stability for Metal Shaping
  • Perfect for Custom Fabrication and Repairs

Working Principle of Leather Metal Forming Leather Shot Bag

These leather shot pouches are filled with lead shot or silica sand and sealed. Based on the metal and the desired size and shape you need; you need to select the right hammer or mallet for striking blows over the shot bag. You can fill the bags with either #8 or #9 lead bird shot for best flow or silica sand. This does not come with our shot bag and you will have to buy it separately. Ensure you do not excessively stuff the bag with the above filling. Leave some space for the material inside to move based on the mallet blows. Keep the metal piece on the top of the bag. You can start giving blows on the bag with the help of the mallet on the sides or in the center portions depending on your metal shaping requirements.
