Wilton 13403 Bench Vise 8 in Jaw Width 2 in Depth

Product Description

The WILTON 13403 is a heavy-duty bench vise designed for securing workpieces during cutting, grinding, welding, and fabrication tasks. With an 8-inch jaw width and a jaw opening of 8.1875 inches, it accommodates a wide range of stock sizes and part profiles. The 2-inch jaw depth provides solid grip surface area for flat stock, pipe, and irregular shapes. At 53 pounds, this is a substantial vise built for permanent or semi-permanent bench mounting in professional shop environments. Machinists, pipefitters, welders, and general fabricators rely on vises of this class for day-to-day heavy workholding.

The WILTON 13403 suits commercial and industrial shop applications where a reliable, fixed-jaw bench vise is required. It is appropriate for use in maintenance shops, trade school facilities, contractor workshops, and production environments. The combination of jaw width and opening capacity makes it a practical fit for both large fabricated components and standard pipe or bar stock. This vise is intended for bench-mounted stationary use and is sold as a single unit.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified tradesperson using appropriate fasteners rated for the vise weight and anticipated clamping loads. Mount the vise to a solid, level workbench surface capable of supporting well in excess of 53 pounds under dynamic load. Ensure all mounting bolts are fully tightened before applying clamping force. Do not exceed the jaw opening specification, as overextension can damage the lead screw mechanism.
