    Dovetail Milling-Machine Vises

    Designed to hold parts on 4- and 5-axis milling machines, these vises provide rigid clamping while exposing five full sides of the workpiece. This allows even complex parts to be completed in a single operation.
    Vises require a dovetail and locating slot to be cut into the bottom side of your material. The dovetail-shaped jaws grip the matching dovetail in your material for consistent locating and high repeatability. Use a Carbide Dovetail End Mill to cut dovetail notches into your material.
    While the vises can be mounted directly to some machines or rotary tables, most will require an adapter plate.
