BVV-5 workshop vice with 360° swivel base — 2300 kgf holding power (Vertex)

A robust BVV-5 workshop vice designed for flexible positioning and heavy-duty clamping in metalworking and general workshop applications

• 360° swivel base for precise workpiece orientation
• 2300 kgf clamping force for reliable fixation
• 0–125 mm jaw opening for versatile clamping
• Stable 10.5 kg weight with compact footprint

Secure, high-force clamping for demanding tasks

The BVV-5 bench vice delivers a 2300 kgf clamping capacity that ensures secure fixation of workpieces during machining, filing and assembly. This high holding power reduces workpiece movement and vibration, which improves precision and surface finish in subsequent operations. The specification indicates a vice engineered for repetitive, heavy-duty use; the mechanical design translates directly into fewer re-clamps and more consistent results on the shop floor. The robust holding capability also supports safe use with hand tools and light machine processes.

Swivel base for fast reorientation and better access

A 360° swivel base provides a practical alternative to repeatedly unclamping and repositioning parts. The rotating mount enables quick orientation adjustments for milling, drilling, grinding or inspection, saving setup time and enabling more ergonomic working positions. Combined with a 0–125 mm jaw opening, the vice accommodates a wide range of component sizes without additional fixtures. This flexibility speeds up multi-step jobs and supports varied workshop workflows, from repair benches to fabrication stations.

Weight and dimensions that favour stability and bench economy

With a weight of 10.5 kg and compact dimensions of 198 × 370 × 165 mm, the vice balances stability with a small bench footprint. The mass helps keep the jaw faces steady under load, reducing the tendency for the vice to shift during high-force operations. At the same time, the moderate overall size leaves bench space for other tools and measuring equipment, supporting efficient workbench organisation without compromising holding performance.

Built to suit professional shops and focused hobbyists

This bench vice complements workplaces where consistent clamping, reliable repositioning and straightforward handling are priorities. The combination of a swivel base and high clamping power makes the tool suitable for light machining tasks, assembly and maintenance work. Delivered as a straightforward workshop vice, the unit integrates into existing benches and tooling routines and supports shops seeking dependable everyday performance without complex setup procedures.
