It provides a soft, non-marring clamping surface that protects finished, machined, or delicate workpieces from damage during securing. Aluminum construction keeps the cap lightweight while delivering enough rigidity to maintain consistent contact across the full jaw face. Machinists, pipefitters, ironworkers, and general trade mechanics use these caps to adapt a standard steel vise for work on softer materials or precision-finished surfaces.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis jaw cap is suited for bench vise applications in commercial shops, maintenance facilities, and trade job sites. It slides onto the existing vise jaw without modification, allowing a quick transition between standard steel jaws and a protective aluminum surface. Tasks such as holding copper fittings, aluminum extrusions, chrome-plated fasteners, or finished pipe sections without leaving jaw marks are common use cases for this part.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eKey Features\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eAluminum construction provides a soft, non-marring clamping surface\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e5.5-inch jaw width matches standard vise jaw sizing for a secure fit\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eLightweight at 1 pound, minimizing added mass on the vise jaw\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eSold individually, allowing single-jaw or paired replacement as needed\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eDrop-on installation requires no tools or hardware modifications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eCompatibility\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eDesigned as an OEM-style replacement jaw cap for bench vises with a 5.5-inch jaw width.

Ensure the vise is in the open position before seating the cap over the jaw face. Verify the cap seats flush and does not rock or shift before applying clamping force. Inspect the cap periodically for cracks or deformation that could compromise workpiece protection.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eJaw Width\u003c\/strong\u003e: 5.5 inches\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMaterial\u003c\/strong\u003e: Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1 pound\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUnit of Measure\u003c\/strong\u003e: Each\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eUPC\u003c\/strong\u003e: 019907148715\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: WILTON\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eManufacturer Part Number\u003c\/strong\u003e: 14871\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"WILTON","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51344999350578,"sku":"14871","price":77.72,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0270\/4519\/9983\/files\/310546505.jpg?v=1782047664","url":"https:\/\/voomisupply.com\/products\/wilton-14871-aluminum-jaw-cap-5-5-inches","provider":"Voomi Supply","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
