Bench Vise AWTools AW24211 fixed medium 4" (100 mm) steel workshop vise

AWTools AW24211 fixed medium bench vise with 4" (100 mm) jaw width is a steel workshop vise designed to hold workpieces securely during cutting, filing, drilling and assembly operations. The vise is intended for mounting to a workbench or table and provides a stable clamping platform for both hobbyist and professional metalworking and general workshop tasks. Its medium size balances reach and clamping force for common repairs and fabrication tasks.

Advantages

The steel construction delivers durability and reliable performance under repeated use. A 100 mm jaw width accommodates a variety of workpiece sizes while providing even pressure across the clamped surface. The fixed design reduces moving parts and simplifies installation, and the vise’s robust build resists deformation during medium-duty metalworking operations. Machined jaws ensure a flat gripping surface for safer, more accurate work.

Suitable for

• Holding metal parts for sawing, grinding and filing
• Securing components for drilling and tapping
• Assembly and light fabrication tasks
• Hobbyist projects and small workshop repairs

Key specifications

• Jaw width: 4" (100 mm)
• Material: steel construction
• Mounting: bench/table mounting compatible
• Design: fixed medium-size bench vise
• Typical applications: clamping for cutting, filing, drilling, assembly

How to use

Secure the vise to a stable workbench or table using appropriate bolts through the base mounting holes. Position the workpiece between the jaws and tighten the handle until the piece is firmly held without over-torquing. Use the vise to steady parts during cutting, filing, drilling or assembly, taking care to align the workpiece so the applied force is distributed across the jaw faces. Release the handle to remove or reposition the workpiece.

Usage recommendations

For safe and long-lasting use, periodically clean chips and debris from the screw and jaw faces and apply light lubrication to the lead screw. Do not use the vise as an anvil or expose it to forces beyond medium-duty metalworking limits. When clamping delicate surfaces, use soft-jaw covers or protective pads to prevent marring.
