Wilton 63203 Copper Jaw Caps 5.5 Inch Vise Accessory

Product Description

The WILTON 63203 copper jaw caps are protective inserts designed to shield workpieces from damage during vise clamping operations. These caps slip over the jaws of a compatible bench vise, placing a soft copper surface between the vise steel and the workpiece. Copper is a naturally soft metal that conforms slightly under pressure, reducing the risk of marring, denting, or scratching finished surfaces, threaded fittings, soft metals, and precision components. At 5.5 inches in jaw width, the 63203 is sized for heavy-duty trade and shop vises commonly found in plumbing, HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical service environments. Each set is sold as a pair and weighs 1.6 pounds.

Copper jaw caps are a standard shop consumable used wherever a bench vise must grip parts that cannot tolerate jaw marks. Typical applications include holding copper tubing, brass fittings, aluminum extrusions, chrome pipe, and finish-coated components during cutting, threading, bending, or assembly work. They are equally at home in a service van-mounted vise or a fixed workshop bench. Plumbers, pipefitters, HVAC technicians, and electricians regularly use copper jaw caps to protect valve bodies, fitting threads, and instrumentation components during hand-tool work.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement accessory for bench vises with a 5.5 inch jaw width. Confirm your vise jaw width before ordering to ensure proper fit.

Installation Notes

Installation requires no tools — press each cap firmly onto the vise jaw by hand until seated flush. Inspect caps periodically for embedded metal chips or debris that could transfer to workpieces and remove any buildup before use. Replace caps when the copper surface shows deep gouges or deformation that may compromise workpiece protection. No electrical isolation or lockout is required for jaw cap replacement on a manual bench vise.
