Self-Centering Machine Vises
The jaws move inward at the same time to consistently position your workpiece in the center of the vise. These vises are used on Bridgeport-style milling machines and drill presses. The base swivels 360° and locks in place.

Extra-Wide-Opening Tilting-Head Bench Vises
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.
