Secure clamping with precision vises
Vises provide rigid, reliable clamping for manual and machine work, enabling precise filing, sawing, threading and drilling by holding workpieces absolutely still; they serve workshops and production halls as essential fixtures for assembly and machining, from bench-mounted parallel vises to machine vises for metalworking. By using hardened steel or vibration-damping cast iron constructions and exchangeable protective jaws of aluminium, polyurethane, rubber or copper, vises protect delicate surfaces while delivering high holding forces that enhance both accuracy and operator safety. As a core tool for metal, plastic and woodworking, they support repeatable setups, improve process stability and reduce rework through consistently secure fixation.

Numbers / Core Technical Data Clamping force: 20 kN Accuracy: 0.01 mm Weight: 19 kg Height: 103 mm Dimensions: 100×150 mm; 100×228 mm ECLASS: 21020601 ETIM: EC002173 Special features / Design Material: Cast iron Type: Hydraulic Modular design SKU: VNC-100FV Brand: Vertex FAQ What clamping force does this vice provide? The vice delivers a rated clamping force of 20 kN; the Vertex VNC-100FV uses hydraulic actuation to apply that force consistently for secure machining. Is the vice suitable for different workpiece sizes? Yes, the modular design and available table sizes (100×150 mm and 100×228 mm) make the vice adaptable to varied part dimensions and fixture layouts. What level of precision can be expected with this clamping unit? The product achieves an accuracy of 0.01 mm, enabling precise positioning and reduced rework when used in repeatable machining processes. Which material is the vice made from and why does it matter? Constructed from cast iron, the vice offers rigidity and vibration damping, qualities that support stable cutting conditions and longer tool life when machining. Is the vice intended for manual or automated machines? The hydraulic design of the VNC-100FV is suited to machine shop integration, including automated or CNC setups that benefit from repeatable, remote‑actuated clamping.

Increase precision and safety with robust bench vices
Bench vices are the fundamental mechanical clamping tools in any workshop, production hall or assembly area. Their simple construction — a fixed jaw and a movable jaw driven by a threaded spindle — enables consistent, high clamping forces that keep workpieces rigid and slip‑free during filing, sawing, tapping, drilling or complex assembly tasks. This reliability reduces rework, shortens setup times and raises operator safety.
Technical data at a glance
- construction: fixed jaw + movable jaw, spindle‑driven clamping
- primary materials: forged steel, grey cast iron
- typical types: parallel bench vices, pipe vices with prism jaws, modular machine vices for CNC

FAQ
What materials can bench vices handle?
Bench vices are suitable for metal, plastic and woodworking tasks; specific vice types and jaw materials determine suitability for softer or harder workpiece surfaces.
How do protective jaws work with vices?
Protective jaws are interchangeable inserts (aluminium, polyurethane, rubber, copper) that fit the vice jaws to protect delicate or finished surfaces during clamping.
Can machine vices replace bench vices for CNC work?
Machine vices, designed for mounting on machine tables, provide the precision and modularity required for CNC operations while bench vices remain ideal for manual and assembly tasks.
Which material is better: forged steel or grey cast iron?
Forged steel vices offer high toughness and impact resistance; grey cast iron vices provide superior vibration damping and dimensional stability for heavy bench or machine mounting.
