Product Description

825-63200 Features: -Wider Jaws provide greater clamping surface.-Fully enclosed spindle and nut increases the life of the vise.-Large anvil work surface.-Precision turned sidebar.-5-1/2'' Tradesman Vise. Includes: -360° swivel base with double lockdowns Proudly made in the USA, the Tradesman round channel vise is designed to handle the most demanding clamping applications. Unlike most vises that have a fixed center nut, the Tradesman round channel vise nut is anchored at the rear. This rear anchored nut provides straight line pull and even pressure resulting in greater durability. The round channel design also allows for a completely enclosed spindle and nut assembly. This enclosure keeps debris out and lubrication in for a lifetime of smooth operation. For ultimate versatility, the Tradesman is equipped with main jaws, pipe jaws and a machined anvil work surface. The main jaws are serrated for a sure grip. The pipe jaws are grooved to prevent rotation of round stock and have a two step design to assure a firm hold on both large and small diameter material. Both the main jaws and the pipe jaws are fully replaceable. The Tradesman vise is also equipped with a swivel base with dual locking nuts. The open locking design of the Tradesman base allows for a full 360 degrees of rotation. To prevent rotation during use both the locking nuts and base have serrated edges that interact positively to assure a non-slip grip when tightened. The main base has four pre-cast holes for mounting the vise to a work surface. Each vise includes a mounting template for quick no guess hole placement for mounting.. Warranty: -Lifetime warranty does not cover abuse.

5big, solid, nicely machined
By A Customer
After shopping exhaustively for a Wilton bench vise I happened across this one in an internet search, and was surprised to learn it was for sale at Amazon.

It weighs 50 lbs, a major shipping weight, but shipping was free.

The jaws are held in place with hex screws, and can be reversed. The surface on one side has ridges for gripping; on the other side, the jaws are smoothly machined.

The vise has an unusually deep throat, which is helpful for sheet metal bending, and for aluminum sheet cutting operations. It is a big, big vise, but I find I can readily use it for fine work as well as for heavy stuff.

5Outstanding Vise
By IM
Picked this vise up for my shop recently from Amazon. My dad had an old Wilton Vise and after probably 40yrs of regular use, still in excellent shape..I thought I'd be brand loyal. This vise is built like a tank and should last generations. Love the locking swivel base.The jaws are reversible and secured w/ hexscrews.(Ridged/serrated on one side/smooth on the other)I have picked up a set of Wilton 21111 5-1/2" Multi-Grip Vise Jaws made of soft polyurethane. Have put those to use already and have avoided scratching up my material..Picked them up from Lowes for around $8. Amazon sells them for around $15. Built in pipe jaws are also replaceable and a very nice feature. The anvil is also nice. It too has been put to use but I'm reluctant to really come down on it with a large hammer.The vise is expensive but you are getting a quality engineered item that should last forever..I ended up getting the Wilton 63185/159V Pedestal Base also from Amazon. This combo is nice. I have a free worktable in my shop and my vise is mounted to the left rear of the table at about waist level.On the pedestal base, the vise can be moved to a different location in my work area if needed.

5Wilton 1755 Tradesman Vise
By McLean
I ordered this vise from Amazon with FREE shipping. Great deal for a 53lb item. It arrived promptly but there was a small chip on the edge of the anvil. I was afraid it may have affected the integrity of the the anvil. I sent it back and Amazon promptly sent me a new one which arrived in perfect condition. It is a big, solid tool that I'm sure will outlast me. Hats-off to Wilton and Amazon. I'm very impressed with the service and the product.
