SG Iron Industrial Vice 200mm
SG Iron Industrial Vice 200mm
This extra-heavy-duty bench vice combines industrial-grade materials with precision engineering for demanding workshop applications. Constructed from spheroidal graphite (SG) iron for superior strength, it features a substantial 200mm jaw width and 200mm maximum opening capacity to accommodate large workpieces. The 25.1kg unit delivers an impressive 4000kg/m² clamping force through its precision-engineered screw thread mechanism, providing effortless operation despite its robust construction. Equipped with replaceable hardened and tempered steel jaws that maintain gripping performance over time, this workshop essential mounts directly to workbenches and carries a lifetime guarantee against manufacturing defects, with an optional swivel base adaptor (USVB200) available separately for enhanced versatility.
Precision Workholding Equipment
Superior Construction Material
Manufactured from SG iron, which offers significantly higher tensile strength and impact resistance than standard cast iron, this vice withstands extreme clamping forces and accidental impacts without cracking or deforming, providing exceptional durability in heavy industrial applications.
Generous Work Capacity
The 200mm jaw width and 200mm maximum opening accommodate larger workpieces than standard vices, eliminating the need to purchase multiple sizes and providing suitable clamping capability for substantial components encountered in machine shops, fabrication, and heavy maintenance tasks.
Engineered Operating Mechanism
The precision-machined screw thread delivers smooth operation and 4000kg/m² of clamping pressure with minimal physical effort, reducing operator fatigue during repetitive clamping tasks while ensuring workpieces remain securely held during aggressive cutting, grinding, or assembly operations.
Replaceable Hardened Jaws
High-quality tempered steel jaw faces provide exceptional gripping performance and can be replaced when worn, extending the vice’s working life indefinitely and maintaining optimal holding capability, even after years of intensive use in workshop environments.
Substantial Working Height
The 240mm overall height positions workpieces at an ergonomic level above the bench surface, providing clearance for tools and components while maintaining stability through the vice’s 25.1kg mass, creating a secure working platform that resists movement during heavy operations.
Expansion Capability
While designed as a fixed mounting vice, the unit accepts an optional swivel base (USVB200) that adds rotational positioning without compromising stability, providing workshop flexibility without requiring purchase of a completely different vice when swivel functionality is occasionally needed.
Practical Applications
Heavy Fabrication: Securely holds large metal stock, pipework, and structural components during cutting, drilling, and grinding operations, with the substantial mass and clamping force preventing workpiece movement even under significant tool pressure, ensuring accurate results and safer working practices.
Machine Shop Operations: Provides reliable workholding for machining preparation and finishing tasks, with the precision jaw alignment maintaining component squareness and parallelism during critical operations, supporting quality outcomes in engineering and manufacturing environments.
Maintenance and Repair: Handles the substantial clamping requirements of vehicle and machinery repair, including holding drivetrain components, suspension parts, and structural elements during disassembly and reassembly procedures, withstanding the high forces often needed to separate corroded or tight-fitting assemblies.
