mandrel
Metalworking support rod
A mandrel is a shaft or spindle around which material is shaped, wound, or supported during machining.
In metalworking, a mandrel holds a workpiece while it's being turned on a lathe.
In glassblowing, molten glass is shaped around one.
Tubes and rings are formed by wrapping material around mandrels: The copper tubing is bent around a mandrel to prevent crimping.
