Hold work at any angle up to 90°. Loosen the nuts on either side of the vise to tilt and adjust the angle; tighten to lock in place. Mount these vises directly to your drill press for drilling, tapping, and reaming applications. They have one smooth jaw and one grooved jaw for clamping flat, round, and uneven workpieces. Turn the threaded main screw to move the jaw.

Vises with swivel base rotate 360° and can be locked in place.

Designed for precision grinding and inspection, the construction of these vises ensures workpieces are held perfectly square. To move the jaw, remove the screw using a 1/4" hex key (not included) and manually slide the jaw into position. Then replace the screw and tighten to firmly grip the workpiece. The base and three sides of the vise are ground flat to a parallel tolerance of 0.0002", enabling mounting on its base, either side, or upright. Mount through the base with screws or use setup clamps (not included). Vises can be used on Bridgeport-style milling machines as well as drill presses and surface grinders. They are also known as toolmakers’ vises.

Our basic machine vises, these are used on Bridgeport-style milling machines as well as drill presses and surface grinders.

Vises with smooth and grooved jaws have one smooth jaw and one grooved jaw for clamping flat, round, and uneven workpieces.

The head tilts, rotates, and locks in place to hold work at an angle.

Bolt-on with 1 1/2" jaw width vise has grooved jaws for clamping round and uneven workpieces.

For large workpieces, these vises open three times as wide as standard tilting-head vises. The head tilts, rotates, and locks in place to hold your work at an angle. Vises have one smooth jaw and one grooved jaw for clamping flat, round, and uneven workpieces. The 5-lb. weighted base is heavy enough to keep the vise in place but light enough to be portable. For temporary mounting, add a clamp-on base (sold separately).

Vise with self-centering jaws has jaws that move at the same time to keep parts in the center of the vise.

Two vise heads tilt and rotate 360°, locking in place to hold work at any angle. The arm holding the vise heads tilts 180°.

Designed for portability and space-saving, these vises have a clamp-on base for quick installation and removal from a benchtop. The base also swivels and can be locked in place.

Lift the end of these sine vises by placing gauge blocks underneath—they hold tools and workpieces at precise angles for grinding, cutting, and inspecting. To determine how high to raise the end, multiply the sine of your desired angle by the distance between the vise’s dowels, which is the hypotenuse. They have a locking bar you tighten with a 5/32" hex key (not included) to secure the angle. Mount them to your work surface, or when you need to cut material on a compound angle, to a sine plate.

To grip workpieces—even small round parts such as pins and dowels—these sine vises have a jaw with horizontal and vertical V-shaped grooves. Adjust the jaw to workpieces of different sizes by loosening its screw with a 1/4" hex key (not included), sliding the jaw into position, and tightening the screw for a firm grip.

Position your circuit board at a comfortable angle when attaching components. These vises rotate, so you can access the back of your board.

Vises with soldering spool and soldering iron holders keep your material and tools nearby. The soldering spool holder feeds solder wire as your work. When you need to set down your hot iron, rest it in the holder instead of on your work surface.

Rotate these vises to solder both the front and back of your circuit board while preventing static charges from damaging your components. Plastic jaws slowly drain static charges away, minimizing the buildup of electrostatic discharge (ESD). To make soldering components through the holes on your board easier, these vises have a positioning arm that holds your component. This allows you to rotate the board and solder on the opposite side without you needing to hold the component.

Use both hands to position and solder components to your circuit board. These vises keep your board stable on a flat surface.

Component positioning stands (sold separately) keep components in place as you solder them through your board.
