Gibraltar 112526 Vise Jaw Cap 5.5 in Aluminum

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 112526 is a press-on vise jaw cap designed to protect workpiece surfaces during clamping operations. Machined from aluminum, this jaw cap slides directly onto standard vise jaws without fasteners, providing a softer contact face that reduces marring on finished metal, wood, or coated parts. At 5.5 inches jaw width, it fits medium to large bench vises commonly found in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and trade workshops. Installation requires no tools and takes seconds, making it practical for technicians who switch between gripping bare stock and finished components throughout a workday.

This vise jaw cap is suited for machine shops, metalworking shops, plumbing fabrication benches, HVAC sheet metal shops, and electrical trade workbenches where protecting finished or delicate workpieces is a routine need. The aluminum construction keeps the cap lightweight while delivering adequate rigidity for repetitive clamping use. It is sold individually and is appropriate for both production environments and service shop settings where vise jaw protection is needed on demand.

Compatibility

Designed as a press-on replacement or protective accessory for bench vises with a 5.5-inch jaw width. Confirm jaw width and press-on attachment compatibility with your existing vise before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by pressing the cap firmly onto the vise jaw faces by hand. Ensure the vise is fully open and clear of any workpiece before seating the caps. No special tools or fasteners are required. Inspect the caps periodically for wear or deformation that could compromise surface protection.
