FAQs

What is the maximum clamping force?

The VEVOR 4-inch milling vise has a maximum clamping force of 19 kN.

What material is the vise made from?

The vise body is constructed from HT250 gray cast iron, and the wrench material is QT500 ductile iron. The clamping jaw is hardened.

Can this vise be used on any drill press?

It is compatible with most drill presses and milling machines that have a suitable mounting surface or table T-slots.

How do I maintain the vise to prevent rust?

After cleaning, apply a light coat of machine oil or a rust-inhibiting lubricant to the lead screw and cast iron surfaces, especially if stored in a humid environment.

What are the dimensions of the vise?

The vise dimensions are approximately 12" x 5.6" x 3.8" (30.5 x 14 x 9.6 cm).

What is the weight of the vise?

The net weight of the vise is 26.3 lbs (11.9 kg).

Is the jaw opening adjustable?

Yes, the lead screw allows for adjustment of the jaw opening up to 4 inches (100mm).

Troubleshooting

Jaws do not close or open smoothly

Clean the lead screw and guide ways. Apply a light coating of machine oil. Ensure no debris is obstructing the mechanism.

Vise slips during operation

Ensure the vise is securely bolted to the machine table. Check that the mounting surface is clean and flat. Increase clamping force if possible, or consider a heavier-duty vise if exceeding its capacity.

Workpiece is not held perfectly square

Ensure the vise is properly aligned with the machine's axes. Check that the workpiece is seated flush against the vise jaw's locating surface.

Rust appears on cast iron surfaces

Wipe down the vise and apply a light coat of machine oil or a rust-inhibiting lubricant, especially after exposure to moisture.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Robust construction using high-quality cast iron and ductile iron for longevity.
  • Precise and secure clamping mechanism ideal for detailed work.
  • Sufficient jaw width and opening for a variety of common machining tasks.
  • High maximum clamping force ensures workpiece stability.
  • Durable components like hardened jaws and a quality lead screw.

Cons

  • Considerable weight (26.3 lbs / 11.9 kg) requires a stable mounting surface.
  • May be oversized for very small, light-duty drill presses.
  • Requires proper maintenance to prevent rust on cast iron components.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Ensure the vise is mounted on a stable, flat surface, ideally the table of a milling machine or a robust drill press.
  2. Secure the vise using the provided mounting slots and appropriate T-nuts or bolts for your machine table.
  3. Align the vise square to the machine's axes for accurate milling operations.
  4. Test the clamping mechanism by opening and closing the jaws fully and tightening them on a test piece.

Compatibility:

  • Machines: Compatible with most standard milling machines and drill presses that have appropriate table T-slots or mounting surfaces.
  • Workpieces: Suitable for holding metal, plastic, and wood workpieces requiring precise machining.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Wipe down the vise with a clean, dry cloth after each use to remove debris and dust. For stubborn residue, use a slightly damp cloth and dry immediately.
  • Lubrication: Apply a light coat of machine oil or a rust-inhibiting lubricant to the lead screw and guide ways periodically to ensure smooth operation and prevent rust.
  • Inspection: Regularly check the jaws and lead screw for wear or damage. Ensure mounting bolts remain tight.
