2-1/2" Drill Press Vise

I was really pleased with this product. It fit perfectly where I wanted it on my drill press I’ve used it several times and it works great. I would buy it again for the size product price fairly reasonable quick delivery good quality I would buy it again.

It is a very basic, cheap, drill press vise. To compare this to a vise that costs many times more would be unfair. At this price point you get what you pay for. It will hold small objects in place for a drilling operation. I use it with a mini drill press (8") and it is suitable for my needs.

Basically a good tool. Couple of easily addressable issues. The small stamped plate that holds the moving jaw level was detached, along with the two screws that held it in place. Lock washers for the screws were in the package loose as well, but in order for the jaw to slide freely when that little plate is tightened down, you need a couple of small spacer washers between the bottom of the jaw and that plate. No sign of those, but that'll only be a few cents next time I'm in a hardware aisle somewhere (if I don't find a couple in my toolbox already). The vise itself is literally rough around the edges – mostly the base – and that can be handles pretty quickly with an angle grinder. For the price, it's a good value, and a perfect fit for my small, benchtop drill press. I'm sure with a dab of grease every now and then, it'll outlive me.

Got this for a very small drill press. Out of the box, flip it over and inspect the two screws that allow the moving jaw to slide against the vise's body. I had to make and add a shim. The two screws were very loose and would have eventually fallen out. If you tighten the two small screws, the moving jaw cannot slide, so the screws are loose from the factory. Adding a small shim that's about 0.0600" thick and about 3/4" square, allows you to tighten the screws against their lock washers, while letting the moving jaw do its job.

Fit my drill press like I wanted. It works like I need it to work haven't had any issues.

Bought this once back in 2016. Somehow walked off the job site so I am buying it again. 7 years of use and never a single problem. That kind of reliability had me feeling some kind of way, it’s absence got me acting up.

Cheap, works great on my small bench top drill press that its intended for. Don't think about it, get this small one and then use some wood spacers to keep your work with no mar. It's not meant for precise work, just to hold stuff down. If you want precision tools, you'll need to spent way more for them like KURT stuff that I use for my milling machine.

The set screw when tightened on the inset binds the jaws. I can set on an extension location. I think that will work. I haven't used them in practice though. The slots are the right size for me though. All the others I looked at were about the same price and I figure their quality is about the same. If I need better I would have to look for a professional grade which means much more money.

On reflection, I should've bought a large model. That's not why I give it three stars though. Screws keep coming loose, and when they do, you have to dismount it, fasten them and re-attach it to your work are. I guess a bit of glue on the screws should solve the problem.

Whats to say. It's a small drill press vice. Seems sturdy enough. Operates smoothly. Clamps firmly, and is very inexpensive. Job done.

It does the job, the con is it is expensive, I found a larger one in the market cheaper.

Se ajusto a un taladro de banco Oakland, sin mayor problema, buen peso, buen precio, excelente, sujeta piezas para perforar sin contratiempo.

Great little drill press mini vise Also use it in my cnc machine for holding small items Slots in base for it to be bolted down or just can be held in the drill press by hand Not checked its levelness/accuracy but it's perfectly usable for my needs & just as good as brands available from a well known high street store
