• 8" Jaw Width: Provides a broad and stable clamping surface, ideal for securing components such as brackets, control arms, steering parts, plate material, and diverse tubing sizes found in light and heavy-duty vehicles.
• Professional-Grade Construction: Built with a 30,000 PSI gray cast iron body and movable jaw, and a 60,000 PSI ductile iron base, this vise withstands high clamping forces and repeated impacts in demanding shop environments.
• Corrosion-Resistant Black Finish: Protects the vise body from rust, common workshop contaminants, and general wear, ensuring longevity and maintaining a professional appearance through years of use.
• High Mass for Stability: Weighing approximately 76.7 lbs, the vise effectively dampens vibrations, providing a steady platform crucial for precision cutting, grinding, welding, and drilling operations.

Applications

The Wilton 50018 8" Reversible Vise is well-suited for comprehensive engine and transmission work on passenger cars, light trucks, and heavy-duty vehicles, securely holding mounts, yokes, brackets, and housings for cleaning, repair, or modification. In chassis and suspension service, it reliably grips control arms, tie rods, and bushings for pressing, cutting, and grinding operations. Fabrication and welding benches benefit from its extended jaw capacity for clamping various plate materials, tubing, fixtures, and custom jigs. Additionally, it serves as a robust general-purpose workholding solution for drilling, filing, assembly, and maintenance tasks across any professional shop environment.
