Customer Reviews for 5"(125mm) Precision Swivel Rotating Base Bench Vice 125mm Jaw Width Durable 19KN

This is way better than it has any right to be for the price!Not a Kurt, but the jaws close well, there is essentially no play, and it even looks pretty good.

1) the 4" is a good size for my Jet jmd-18 mill.2) castings are rough, but the machined surfaces are adequate. It holds evenly across the jaws. The lead screw is smooth, and the jaws don't have a lot of slop in them.3) the swivel is draggy and clunky, but I suspect non-chinesium fasteners will help with that.

The vise seems sound except the screw nut. I need to take it apart and find out why it has so much looseness under the movable jaw mount.

Exactly as expected.

Overall I like the vise, seems to be working fine I checked the surface run out and it was acceptable as was the face run out.My only complaint if you will, I would've liked the holddown lugs to be fore and aft rather than on the sides of the vise which made it difficult to mount on my machine whose T slots run along the y-axis instead of the x-axis.

For the money this is an adequate vise for my small milling machine. It came with indexing keys that can be machined to fit the slots in your mill table. The jaws are ground but don’t have a step as I would prefer. I will mill a step on each side. It a big chuck of cast iron and ships in a sturdy cardboard box. No issues.

très bon rapport qualité/prix, je recommande

So far so good

Pour Machinage général

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’t found any workpieces that do not hold solidly.
