Gibraltar G-110180 Horizontal Drill Press Vise Cast Iron

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR G-110180 is a horizontal drill press vise designed to secure workpieces during drilling operations on a drill press. Built from cast iron, it provides rigid, stable clamping with a 1.5-inch jaw opening capacity and a 1-inch throat depth. The 1.5-inch wide jaw distributes clamping force evenly across the workpiece face. With a stationary base and standard spindle operation, this vise mounts directly to a drill press table and stays fixed during the drilling cycle. At 5.125 inches overall length and approximately 1.65 inches overall height, it fits compact drill press setups without obstructing column clearance. Machinists, fabricators, and general shop technicians are the typical users.

This vise suits light-duty horizontal clamping tasks on benchtop and floor-model drill presses in machine shops, maintenance facilities, and trade workshops. It is well-suited for drilling small to medium workpieces in metal, wood, or plastic where a fixed, repeatable clamping position is needed. The stationary base keeps the vise registered to the table, making it practical for repetitive hole patterns where the workpiece is repositioned between holes.

Key Features

• 1.5-inch jaw opening capacity accommodates a range of small workpiece sizes
• 1-inch throat depth allows workpieces to seat fully against the jaw face
• Cast iron construction resists deflection under drilling load
• Stationary base keeps vise position fixed to the drill press table
• Compact overall length of 5.125 inches suits benchtop drill press tables
• Standard spindle operation for straightforward tightening and release

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or standard shop vise for use with benchtop and floor-model drill presses requiring a horizontal, stationary-base vise with up to 1.5-inch jaw opening capacity.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or general shop technician. Before mounting, power down and lock out the drill press per OSHA lockout/tagout procedures. Secure the vise to the drill press table using appropriate T-bolts or clamps through the base slots; ensure the vise is square to the table travel before final tightening. Do not exceed the jaw opening capacity of 1.5 inches, as overloading the jaw can crack the cast iron body.
