Ferrules [noun]

The mayorʼs symbol of office is a cane with a silver knob, plated ferrule, and black cord and tassels.

If only a short piece of pipe is available, it can be used as a ferrule and a handle made of wire or wood.

All hooks but the one in use are turned back into the handle and the ferrule slipped into place.

As the mandrel with the ferrule passed through the tin, the metal was shaped exactly to the mandrel.

The shillelagh was then a beautiful, tough, formidable weapon, and when tipped with an iron ferrule was quite ready for action.

It should be beaten in very slowly until it fits the ferrule.

The ferrule will look black when this happens and will thus be recognized.

The 4-inch brass ferrule joint is the same as the 2-inch, except for size.

A flat pan is laid on the bench and the ferrule stood upon it.

This next joint, the 2-inch brass ferrule, is wiped in an upright position.
