Customer Reviews for 2 Way 5" Tilting 360 ℃ Swiveling Milling Vise Accurate 90℃ Tilt Swiveling Vise

I had the idea this 6" vise was 14" long- it is 16.25" long. That's ok, I made room. The quality in machining was much better than I expected. You'll notice in the pics, you can't even see the seam in the jaws with the vise closed. I tested the jaws and the best I could get was an accuracy of .0015". Horizontally, it was dead on at .0005". They didn't use the stronger acme thread on these vises. It has a more fine deep thread I don't recognize, which is good for torgue, but not as strong as an acme thread. I did bear down on clamping with no bad effects and the vise held the part very well and I was confident with it. The screw has exposed threads with the vise opened over 4.5", so I made a metal plate to cover the screw to help keep chips out and the threads clean. (See pic). The total jaw opening is 6-3/8". The total jaw width is 6-3/8". The Jaw height is 1.75". The base is over 8" wide and 16.25" long. From the bottom of the base to the bottom of the jaws is 2-7/8". Even for it's size on my mill, it will function just fine for certain jobs, but I'm ordering the 4" vise for better reach on smaller work, as my 3" vise is too limited for what i do. I made a spin handle for it, but it operates very smoothly even by turning with the fingers. I am satisfied. A well made vise for the price. It weighs over 50 lbs.

If you can't justify the price of a Kurt Vise based on the Precision of the Parts you're making this is the Vise you want to use.It comes perfectly wrapped to protect it in shipping. The vice comes clean, not soaked in any oil or cosmoline. The threaded Rod is greased.I suggest using different Hardware that came with the vice the hardware is poorly made.Hardware is my only gripe.The rest of the vice is perfect for my needs.

This is a nice vice and works great. I use it regularly and it was well worth the price!!

The product is very well made. They pack the item very well. I would buy again from this seller.

I bought this vise to use on my HFMini mill. Fits well and is easy to setup. Accuracy on the base seems to be excellent, returns to zero with out much indicating. Haven_ found any workpieces that do not hold solidly.

This review is for the 5" model. I am really happy with these vises for the money (bought 2) I am using them on a made in spain bridgeport clone and I have no complaints other than that the included mounting hardware is absolutely worthless. Throw the bolts in your junk bin ASAP and take $10 out of the hundreds you saved by buying an import vise and buy some made in USA T nuts and some grade 8 bolts

The quality is solid with very nice ground surfaces. This will worth 4x if it has a tag labeling "Made in US"

Just what I needed! Works great!

It clearly is not aligned perfectly, but for my manual mill, I am happy with it. I did loosen and adjust the jaws and that helped.

Really surprising quality and precision. Much better than expected, especially for the money!
