Bench vise GEKO 5" (125 mm) swivel heavy duty

Bench vise GEKO 5" (125 mm) swivel heavy duty is a workshop clamping tool intended for securing workpieces during metalworking, woodworking and general repair tasks. The vise features a 125 mm (5") jaw width and a robust body with a swivel base that permits rotation for accurate positioning on a workbench in garages, repair shops or hobby workshops. The design emphasizes stable clamping force and durable construction for repetitive use.

Advantages

The swivel heavy duty bench vise offers a combination of wide jaw opening and firm clamping to hold a range of materials steadily during cutting, filing, drilling or assembly operations. Its swivel base enables rapid reorientation of the workpiece without removing it from the jaws, improving workflow efficiency. The solid build and reinforced jaw area provide resistance to deformation under load, while the reliable screw mechanism ensures smooth tightening and controlled release.

Suitable for

• Clamping metal parts for cutting, filing and drilling
• Holding wooden components during shaping and sanding
• General repair and assembly tasks in home garages and workshops
• Hobby projects that require secure, stable fixation of workpieces

Key specifications

• Jaw width: 125 mm (5")
• Swivel base for adjustable positioning
• Heavy duty construction for stable clamping
• Screw-driven tightening mechanism for controlled clamping force
• Suitable for bench mounting

How to use

Mount the vise securely to a stable workbench using appropriate fasteners through the base holes. Rotate the swivel base to the desired orientation and lock it in place before applying load. Open the jaws by turning the handle counterclockwise, place the workpiece between the jaws, then tighten by turning the handle clockwise until the workpiece is held firmly. Avoid over-tightening sensitive materials; use soft jaw covers if necessary to prevent surface damage. Regularly inspect the screw, jaws and swivel locking mechanism and remove debris to maintain smooth operation.

Usage recommendations

For secure and long-lasting performance, mount the vise on a sturdy bench, keep the screw and sliding surfaces clean and lightly lubricated, and use protective jaw pads when clamping delicate materials. Always wear appropriate personal protective equipment when working with power tools near the clamped workpiece.
