Gibraltar 110052 Machine Vise 4 in 3-way Angle Swivel Base

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 110052 is a manual machine vise designed for secure workpiece clamping on milling machines, drill presses, and similar machine tools. Built from cast iron with steel jaws, this vise provides rigid, precision holding force across a 4-inch jaw width and a 4-inch jaw opening. The 3-way angle orientation type allows the workpiece to be positioned at compound angles, expanding its usefulness beyond flat, horizontal cuts. A swivel base adds rotational flexibility without removing the vise from the table. At 51 pounds, this is a shop-grade unit intended for regular production use by machinists and tool room professionals.

This vise is suited for single-station setups in machine shops, tool rooms, and industrial maintenance environments. It is typically mounted to the T-slots of a milling machine or drill press table using the swivel base. The 3-way angle capability supports angled drilling, milling, and compound cuts that standard flat vises cannot accommodate. Its cast iron construction handles the vibration and lateral forces common in metal-cutting operations. This is a single-station unit, appropriate where one workpiece is fixtured at a time.

Key Features

• 4-inch jaw width and 4-inch jaw opening for versatile workpiece sizing
• 3-way angle orientation type enables compound-angle positioning
• Swivel base allows rotational repositioning without full removal from the machine table
• Cast iron vise body resists deformation under machining loads
• Steel jaws provide durable clamping surface for metal workpieces
• Precision-rated construction for accurate, repeatable setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style machine vise replacement or addition for standard milling machines and drill presses equipped with T-slot tables that accept a swivel-base vise footprint.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by qualified machinists or toolroom technicians. Power down and lock out the machine before mounting or adjusting the vise on the table. Secure the swivel base to the machine table T-slots using appropriately sized T-bolts and nuts torqued per the machine tool manufacturer's table-clamping guidelines. Verify jaw alignment with a dial indicator before beginning precision work.
