Screwless Vises

About

This vise is called a screwless vise because there is no long adjusting screw running axially the length of the vise. The vise is tightened with a socket head cap screw that pulls down at about a 45° angle. Because of this angle, the movable jaw is pulled down as well as closed when the screw is tightened. This prevents the movable jaw from lifting as the vise is tightened. The screwless vise is a precision vise. It is hardened and ground on ALL sides to be square and parallel. This allows the vise to be positioned in a variety of ways for work holding There are horizontal and vertical vees on the inside face of the movable jaw to hold round objects.
