Our products cater to an expansive clientele that includes not only large distributors but also individual craftsmen from across the globe.

The utility combination vise features a jaw width of 5.5 inches (12.7 cm) and a jaw opening of 5 inches (12.7 cm). Additionally, the throat depth measures 3.25 inches (9.525 cm), with a minimum pipe capacity of 0.125 inches (0.3175 cm) and a maximum pipe capacity of 2.5 inches (6.35 cm). Constructed from 30,000 PSI cast grey iron and reinforced with a steel U-channel bar, this vise is built for strength and longevity. It also includes a large anvil work surface, replaceable hardened steel serrated top jaws, and a sizable permanent serrated pipe jaw, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

To use the vise effectively, first ensure it is securely mounted to a workbench and that the swivel base lock is in place. To open the vise, turn the handle counterclockwise. Position the item you wish to work on between the serrated jaws, and then close the vise by turning the handle clockwise until the item is snugly held. Continue tightening until it is securely in place, but be cautious not to over-tighten, as this may damage both the item and the vise itself. Upon completion of your task, simply turn the screw handle counterclockwise to release the item.
