HS-5 Base for Vertex VHT Vices — Compact rigid support, 297×267×43 mm

A robust HS-5 base designed to stabilise Vertex VHT vices for workshop and production use.

• Compact footprint 297×267×43 mm
• Mass 7 kg for increased stability
• Compatible with Vertex VHT vices
• Solid support for precise machining

Designed for steadier machining results

The HS-5 serves as a dedicated support element that increases stability during clamping and machining. With a mass of 7 kg, the component reduces micro-movements and vibration transfer from cutting tools to the workpiece, which directly supports improved precision and repeatability in finishing operations. For production environments where consistent tolerances matter, this additional inertia helps to lower scrap rates and minimise rework. The rigid construction also contributes to predictable machining behaviour, which benefits both manual and CNC-assisted workflows.

Saves bench space while ensuring compatibility

Thanks to its compact 297×267×43 mm footprint, the support can be positioned on crowded benches or integrated into existing fixturing arrangements without consuming excessive space. The geometry is intended for direct pairing with Vertex VHT vices, offering a straightforward way to upgrade clamping stability without redesigning the workspace. For workshops seeking higher throughput within limited floor space, the compact design provides a practical balance between space-saving and functional support, allowing operators to retain access to nearby tools and measuring equipment.

Built for reliable supply and workshop integration

Sourced from a recognised clamping-technology manufacturer, the support aligns with industry expectations for durable, predictable components. The simple, no-frills design focuses on a single purpose: provide a stable platform for vice-mounted workpieces. When combined with a dependable supplier network, consistent availability and standardised quality help maintain uninterrupted production. Metav’s role as a precision partner ensures access to compatible parts and a distribution channel that emphasises transparency and dependable fulfilment from a European logistics centre.
