Vertex VQHJ-5 Machine Vice – Hydraulic & Standard, Very High Jaws
The VQHJ-5 is a machine vice designed for milling and machining operations, featuring very high jaws and dual hydraulic and standard operation for versatile clamping of tall workpieces
- High clamping force 24 kN
- Opening range 0–160 mm
- Cast iron body for stability
- Very high jaws for tall components
Built for dependable clamping and repeatable accuracy
The vice’s cast iron body provides a stable, vibration-damping base that supports precision machining and repeatability. With a rated clamping force of 24 kN, the unit holds workpieces firmly during heavy milling or drilling, reducing the risk of movement that can cause defects. The robust construction contributes to long service life and consistent results, so production runs maintain part tolerances and surface finish quality.
Designed to handle tall and awkward components without compromise
The very high jaws allow secure gripping of taller or irregularly shaped components that standard vices struggle with, enabling vertical clamping and improved access for tool paths. The 0–160 mm opening range gives measurable flexibility for different workpiece sizes while preserving alignment and parallelism. This capacity reduces the need for complex fixturing, streamlines setup times and supports efficient workflow in jobbing and serial production.
Dual operation for flexible workshop workflows
Configured for both hydraulic and standard operation, the device adapts to workshop preferences and machine interfaces, offering automated clamping where required and manual control when precision adjustment is needed. The vice’s overall dimensions of 135 x 478.5 x 223 mm and a mass of 51.8 kg balance rigidity with manageable footprint, making it suitable for a broad range of machining centres. The combined features support higher throughput and lower rework rates by simplifying clamping procedures and improving process reliability.
