Wilton 1700180 Spindle Assembly 3/4 in X 12-19/32 in

Product Description

The WILTON 1700180 is a replacement spindle assembly designed for use in bench vises and related clamping equipment. The spindle is the threaded rod and associated hardware that drives jaw movement, converting handle rotation into clamping force. This assembly measures 3/4 inch in diameter and 12-19/32 inches in length, making it a direct-fit replacement for worn or damaged spindle components. Machinists, fabricators, and general trade professionals install this part during vise rebuild and maintenance procedures.

This spindle assembly is suited for workshop and production environments where bench vise performance must be restored to spec. It is commonly installed during overhaul of a vise that has developed slop, thread wear, or binding in the jaw drive mechanism. The 3/4 inch diameter and 12-19/32 inch length position this assembly within the mid-size bench vise range typically found in machine shops, fabrication facilities, and trade workshops.

Key Features

• 3/4 inch spindle diameter for precise fit in compatible vise bodies
• 12-19/32 inch overall length provides full jaw travel range
• OEM-style replacement assembly for straightforward swap-out
• Restores proper clamping function to worn or damaged vise drive mechanisms

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement spindle assembly for WILTON bench vises requiring a 3/4 inch diameter spindle. Confirm vise model compatibility against WILTON documentation before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a machinist or experienced tradesperson during a bench vise rebuild. Before disassembly, fully open the vise jaws and secure the vise body in a stable position. Removal of the existing spindle requires basic hand tools; consult the vise manufacturer service documentation for proper disassembly sequence. Inspect the vise nut and jaw guides for wear before installing the new spindle assembly.
