Bessey BV-VB Bench Vise Vacuum Base Light-duty

Product Description

The BESSEY BV-VB is a light-duty bench vise designed for portable, temporary workholding without permanent mounting. It attaches to smooth work surfaces via a vacuum base, eliminating the need for bolts or clamps. A locking ring secures the vacuum seal, and a non-slip rubber pad protects the work surface. The vise handles pipe up to 1 inch in capacity, making it suited for light plumbing, electrical, and general trade work where a stationary full-size vise is not practical. At 4.3 pounds, it is light enough to move between job sites or shop benches as needed.

The BV-VB is intended for light-duty applications in residential and light commercial settings. It works on any clean, flat, non-porous surface such as a workbench, countertop, or tailgate. The vacuum base design makes it particularly useful for service techs and tradespeople who work in multiple locations and need a quick-setup vise without permanent installation. It is not rated for heavy fabrication or high-torque work.

Installation Notes

No tools are required to mount the BV-VB. Place the vise on a clean, flat, non-porous surface and engage the locking ring to create the vacuum seal before beginning work. Do not use on porous, textured, or wet surfaces, as the vacuum seal will not hold. Release the locking ring before attempting to reposition the vise.
