M318.332 bench vice with threaded spindle — 50 mm jaws (Metav IndustryLine)

The M318.332 bench vice with threaded spindle is a compact clamping vice with prism-ground jaws for secure holding of round, cylindrical and irregular workpieces in workshop, jig and inspection environments.

• Prism-ground jaws, horizontal and vertical
• 50 mm jaw width
• 60 mm clamping span
• Threaded spindle for fine adjustment

Consistent precision for inspection and assembly

The vice delivers a measured accuracy of 0.005 mm, which supports repeatable positioning during inspection and small-batch assembly. The prism grooves, ground both horizontally and vertically, create reliable contact on cylindrical parts and shafts, reducing lateral slip and misalignment during clamping. A declared squareness of 0.01 mm ensures that right-angle references remain trustworthy, which simplifies downstream checking and minimises rework. These measurable qualities turn a simple clamping tool into a dependable element of a precision workflow.

Compact design that improves everyday workflow

With a 50 mm jaw width and 60 mm clamping span, this vice balances reach and stiffness for routine shop tasks. The compact footprint and 2.1 kg construction make the unit easy to position on workbenches and inspection tables while still providing sufficient mass for stable clamping. The threaded spindle allows controlled, fine adjustment of jaw position, so fixtures and small assemblies can be clamped without sudden movements. In practice, the combination of compact dimensions and precise spindle control reduces time spent re-seating workpieces and contributes to a smoother production rhythm.

Robust contact geometry for versatile holding

Prism-shaped jaw faces are especially useful when securing round bars, shafts or irregular components: the shaped contact increases surface conformity and reduces point pressure. The prism grooves ground in both planes ensure repeatable contact points, improving measurement consistency when used in metrology tasks or setup procedures. Built for routine use in machine shops, toolrooms and inspection bays, the vice converts accurate geometry into tangible benefits: fewer adjustments, faster setups and more predictable results from one clamping cycle to the next.
