VR-80 Angle Plate by Vertex — high‑strength cast steel, 7.4 kg

The VR-80 angle plate is a compact clamping angle designed as a stable right‑angle reference for machining, inspection and assembly tasks in metalworking and toolmaking.

• High-strength cast steel construction
• Stable right-angle reference surface
• Compact footprint, 7.4 kg mass

Consistent alignment for precision machining

The VR-80 serves as a dependable right‑angle datum, delivering repeatable positioning for milling, drilling and inspection operations. Machined faces provide a true planar reference that reduces set‑up variation; this leads to fewer adjustments during batch runs and a lower scrap rate. The combination of a dense mass and robust casting minimises vibration and improves cutting stability, which is particularly beneficial when working with sensitive geometries or finishing passes. Where exact perpendicularity is required, the angle plate functions as a simple, low‑risk solution to maintain machining tolerances and throughput.

Integrates smoothly into existing workholding setups

With a compact footprint and straightforward mounting options, the device slips easily into existing fixture layouts and vice systems. The supplied dimensions (8x5x6") and a mass of 7.4 kg balance portability with form stability, enabling quick repositioning on the machine table while keeping the reference surface rigid under clamp loads. Flat, machined faces allow direct clamping or use with parallel bars and angle clamps, reducing set‑up time. For workshops aiming to streamline operations, this component supports faster job changeovers and consistent part orientation without the need for complex jigs.

Built to last with low maintenance demands

Constructed from high‑strength cast steel, the angle plate resists distortion and offers strong wear characteristics for extended service life. The material choice provides a corrosion‑resistant base suitable for general workshop environments; periodic cleaning and a light protective coating are sufficient to maintain the accuracy of the reference faces. This durability translates to long‑term cost efficiency: fewer replacements, reduced downtime and sustained precision across many production cycles. For quality‑focused facilities, the robustness of the design supports dependable measurement and machining practices.
