Machined from aluminum, this jaw measures 8 inches wide, 2.5 inches high, and 1.25 inches thick. The soft aluminum construction protects finished or delicate workpiece surfaces from marring, denting, or scoring during clamping operations. It is a fixed jaw configuration, meaning it mounts to the stationary jaw face of the vise. Machinists, tool-and-die workers, fabricators, and maintenance technicians install this type of jaw when grip protection is the priority over raw clamping aggression. At 5.047 pounds, this is a solid, full-width replacement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jaw is suited for use in machine shops, fabrication shops, and maintenance environments where workholding on an 8-inch bench vise is routine. The flat jaw profile handles stock, bar, plate, and shaped workpieces that require even clamping across the full jaw face. It is appropriate for both production and toolroom settings. The aluminum material makes it a practical choice when clamping softer metals, plastics, or pre-finished parts where steel jaw faces would cause surface damage.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSoft aluminum construction protects workpiece surfaces from jaw marks and deformation\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFlat jaw profile provides even clamping pressure across the full 8-inch width\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eFixed jaw design for mounting to the stationary jaw face of compatible vises\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e8 inches wide by 2.5 inches high by 1.25 inches thick for a full-coverage replacement fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight aluminum reduces added mass to the vise assembly\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as a replacement soft jaw for 8-inch bench vises.

Power down any associated equipment and secure the vise before removing existing jaw hardware. Follow the vise manufacturer fastener pattern and torque guidance as specified in their service documentation. Do not overtighten fasteners into the aluminum jaw body, as the material is softer than steel and threads can strip if excessive force is applied.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Height\u003c\/strong\u003e: 2.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Thickness\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1.25 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Shape\u003c\/strong\u003e: Flat\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Movement Type\u003c\/strong\u003e: Fixed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHard\/Soft\u003c\/strong\u003e: Soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVise Compatibility\u003c\/strong\u003e: 8-inch vises\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.047 pounds\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePackage Quantity\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eStandard Information\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrand\u003c\/strong\u003e: GIBRALTAR\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 428-1072\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"GIBRALTAR","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51721269215538,"sku":"428-1072","price":102.31,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/1fce951651a432aa5cbb132c62a03193.jpg?v=1788575629","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/gibraltar-428-1072-soft-vise-jaw-8-inch-flat-fixed-aluminum","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
