Gibraltar G-112401 Horizontal Drill Press Vise 3 in

Product Description

The GIBRALTAR G-112401 is a horizontal drill press vise built for stationary workholding on drill press tables in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and trade workshops. The vise features a 3-inch jaw opening capacity and a 1-1/2-inch throat depth, allowing secure clamping of small to medium workpieces during drilling operations. The 3-inch-wide jaws distribute clamping force evenly across the workpiece face. Cast iron construction provides rigidity and resistance to deflection under drill press loads. Overall length measures 8.25 inches and overall height is approximately 2.63 inches. Standard spindle operation keeps setup straightforward for general-purpose drilling tasks.

This drill press vise is suited for use in machine tool environments where a stationary, horizontal-orientation vise is required. Typical applications include metalworking, light fabrication, and mechanical assembly operations where consistent part positioning during drilling is critical. The stationary base keeps the vise fixed to the drill press table without swivel adjustment, making it a reliable choice for repetitive, high-volume drilling setups on flat stock and small components.

Key Features

• 3-inch jaw opening capacity for clamping small to medium workpieces
• 1-1/2-inch throat depth accommodates raised or irregular part profiles
• 3-inch-wide jaws provide even clamping pressure distribution
• Cast iron body resists deflection and absorbs drill press vibration
• Stationary base for fixed-position mounting on drill press tables
• Standard spindle operation for straightforward, general-purpose use

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-fit addition for standard drill press table setups requiring a horizontal, stationary-base vise with a 3-inch jaw opening.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or tool and die 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-slot bolts or clamping hardware rated for the table slot dimensions. Verify the vise jaws are square to the spindle axis before tightening fasteners to ensure accurate hole placement.
