Drill Press Vice 125mm

Features

• 125 mm jaw width comfortably clamps wider workpieces and larger profiles than a 100 mm vice.
• Heavy-duty cast-iron body delivers excellent rigidity and reduces flex for accurate drilling.
• Low-profile design keeps overall height down to maximise usable drilling stroke.
• Precision-machined jaws provide flat, square clamping faces for a secure, accurate grip.
• Slotted mounting base fits most drill press and pillar drill tables for easy bolting and alignment.
• Strong lead screw mechanism offers smooth tightening and high clamping force with minimum effort.
• Steel sliding handle gives good leverage and control when opening or closing the jaws.

Benefits

• Improved drilling accuracy by holding the workpiece firmly and square, reducing bit wander and chatter.
• Safer operation as the vice prevents the workpiece from spinning or snatching if the drill bit grabs.
• Handles larger stock thanks to the wider jaws, making it suitable for bigger brackets, plates and sections.
• Consistent, repeatable results when drilling multiple identical parts, even in harder materials.
• Long service life due to the robust cast-iron body and durable screw and jaw construction.

Extra Information

• Designed primarily for drill press and pillar drill tables, but can also be bolted to a sturdy workbench for light machining and general clamping.
• Ideal for drilling operations on steel, aluminium, non-ferrous metals, plastics and timber within the vice’s capacity.
• Magnetic or slip-on soft jaws can be added to protect finished surfaces or to improve grip on round and irregular shapes.
• A dedicated Service Kit (Code: TCV13125-SK01) with replacement jaws, worm and handle is available separately.
• Keep the screw and sliding surfaces lightly oiled and free from swarf to maintain smooth operation and reduce wear.

Specifications

Safety

• Wear eye, ear and dust protection whenever drilling, especially in metal and abrasive materials.
• Ensure the vice is securely bolted to the drill press table or bench before applying clamping force or starting the machine.
• Do not exceed the vice’s clamping capacity or use cheater bars on the handle – this can damage the screw or jaws.
• Keep fingers, gloves and loose clothing away from the rotating drill bit and from between the jaws when tightening.
• Support long workpieces with additional stands or clamps to prevent leverage on the vice and drill press table.
