DRILL PRESS VICE 8IN. - Wilton Corporation

The Wilton 13403 8" Drill Press Vise is engineered for consistent, repeatable workholding in professional automotive, industrial, and maintenance settings. Its robust 51 lb cast-iron body delivers the stability, clamping force, and precise alignment necessary for demanding drilling and machining operations. This professional-grade vise ensures secure workpiece positioning, enhancing accuracy and safety in various shop tasks.

Key Features

• 8" Jaw Capacity: Accommodates a broad spectrum of workpieces, from small brackets and tabs to larger plates, fixtures, and fabricated parts common in engine, chassis, and suspension work.
• Heavy-Duty Cast-Iron Construction: A substantial 51 lb mass effectively dampens vibration and keeps the vise firmly planted on the drill press table, supporting accurate drilling and light machining in steel, aluminum, and plastics.
• Cam Action Clamping System: Allows for rapid jaw positioning with a simple push or pull on the center bar knob. The easy-press locking lever cams the jaw forward, applying an adjustable holding pressure from 400 to 1100 lbs to secure workpieces and minimize part shift during operations.
• Precision Machined Surfaces: Ground jaw faces and machined base surfaces help maintain squareness between the workpiece and the drill bit, improving hole location and ensuring repeatable results. The base design also supports clear-through drilling applications.
• Versatile Mounting: The base is sized to fit most standard drill press tables and shop benches, offering flexibility for both permanent mounting and quick repositioning as required.

Applications

This vise is ideal for automotive technicians, machinists, and fabricators. It securely holds brackets, flanges, engine components, transmission and driveline plates, as well as general fabrication stock during drilling, tapping, and light milling on a drill press. Its low-profile design also makes it suitable as a bench vise for assembly, deburring, layout, and light grinding where a rigid, stable workholding solution is essential.
