Gibraltar 428-1076 Soft Vise Jaw 6 in Fixed Aluminum

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR 428-1076 is a flat soft vise jaw designed as a fixed jaw replacement for 6-inch bench vises. Machined from aluminum, this soft jaw measures 6 inches wide, 3 inches high, and 2 inches thick, providing a non-marring clamping surface that protects finished or soft workpieces during holding operations. At 7.269 pounds, the jaw is built for durability in shop environments. It is used by machinists, toolmakers, and maintenance technicians who need to swap out worn or damaged vise jaws without replacing the entire vise unit.

This fixed jaw is suited for general machining, fabrication, and production environments where workholding on a 6-inch bench vise is required. The aluminum construction delivers a softer contact surface compared to steel jaws, reducing the risk of surface damage on parts being held. It is appropriate for both light-duty and repetitive clamping tasks in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and manufacturing environments.

Key Features

• Flat jaw profile provides uniform contact across the full 6-inch width
• Soft aluminum material protects finished and delicate workpiece surfaces
• Fixed jaw design for direct drop-in replacement on compatible vises
• 6 inches wide by 3 inches high by 2 inches thick for substantial clamping area
• Weighs 7.269 pounds — solid construction for stable workholding

Compatibility

Designed for use with 6-inch vises. Verify jaw mounting pattern and attachment hardware against the existing vise before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or maintenance technicians using standard hand tools. Secure all fasteners fully before applying clamping load. Inspect the vise body and jaw mounting surfaces for wear or damage before installing the replacement jaw. Always clamp the vise in a safe, stationary position and confirm the jaw is fully seated before returning the vise to service.
