M318.345 — Machine vice with quick adjustment and 125 mm jaws (Metav IndustryLine)

M318.345 is a machine vice designed for rapid, secure clamping of prismatic and cylindrical components in workshop and toolroom applications, combining fast setup with dependable repeatability.

• 125 mm hardened precision jaws
• Rapid quick‑adjustment for fast setup
• Horizontally and vertically ground prisms
• 15.2 kg cast base for vibration stability

Precision clamping for repeatable set‑ups

A focus on reliable positioning makes this vice ideal where consistent results matter. The 125 mm jaws and clamping span 160 mm provide a practical work envelope for common workshop tasks, while the ground prisms—machined both horizontally and vertically—offer positive seating for round stock and odd‑shaped parts. The quick adjustment mechanism allows the slide to be moved rapidly to near‑position before final clamping, reducing non‑productive time and improving throughput without compromising alignment.

Rigidity and measurement stability for machining

Stability undercutting machining variation is delivered through a substantial base mass and tight geometric tolerances. At 15.2 kg, the vice presents a solid foundation that dampens vibration and supports heavier cutting operations. The built geometry achieves accuracy 0.005 mm and squareness 0.01 mm, figures that translate into fewer reworks and more first‑pass conformity in production and workshop fixtures, especially when repeat setups are required.

Practical handling and workshop compatibility

The vice is conceived for everyday use on lathes, millers and general assembly benches: the quick adjustment expedites clamping cycles, and the prism‑style jaws simplify holding of shafts and round stock without additional fixtures. Robust construction and straightforward operation keep maintenance simple and ramp‑up times short. As a member of the Metav IndustryLine, this tool is positioned to serve both small workshops and demanding repair or jigs‑and‑fixtures environments.
