Parallels
Place a parallel against each vise jaw to create a rest for your workpiece. Precision ground to tight tolerances, these matched pairs raise the workpiece within a vise to allow more clearance for cutting tools.
Parallels with two precision-ground sides have a parallel tolerance of 0.0001" on the top and bottom edges.
6" long parallels are ground to 0.0001"; 12" long parallels are ground to 0.0002".

Sets of Parallels
Sets include multiple sizes of matched pairs that are precision ground for tight tolerances on the top and bottom edges. Place a parallel against each vise jaw and rest your workpiece on top to raise it within the vise and allow more clearance for cutting tools.
