Machine vice HAZET 2175N Clamp opening 12.5 cm Tabletop

The HAZET 2175N machine vice with a 12.5 cm clamp opening is a tabletop vice designed for holding workpieces securely during machining, filing, drilling and assembly tasks. Weighing approximately 4.73 kg, the vice provides a balance between portability and stable clamping force for small to medium workshop applications. Its compact footprint and flat base allow fixed mounting to a workbench or table to ensure consistent alignment and repeatable positioning.

Advantages

This tabletop machine vice offers rigid clamping and accurate jaw parallelism to reduce workpiece movement during operations. The moderate weight contributes to stability without making the unit difficult to position or mount. The 12.5 cm clamp opening accommodates a wide range of part sizes common in metalworking and general repairs. Robust construction and a machined base deliver reliable performance and long service life under normal workshop conditions.

Suitable for

• Holding small to medium metal or plastic workpieces for drilling and milling
• Bench filing, sawing and finishing tasks that require steady clamping
• Assembly and repair work where consistent alignment is necessary
• Hobbyist and professional workshop use on a fixed tabletop

Key specifications

• Clamp opening (maximum jaw travel): 12.5 cm
• Intended mounting: tabletop/workbench fixed mounting
• Approximate weight: 4.73 kg
• Construction: machined metal body for rigidity and wear resistance
• Usage orientation: horizontal table-mounted vice for machining tasks

How to use

Secure the vice to a stable workbench using appropriate bolts through the base holes, aligning it with the machine or drill press centerline if required. Open the jaws to accommodate the workpiece, insert material between the jaws, and tighten the screw mechanism until the part is held firmly without causing deformation. Verify jaw alignment and repeatability before beginning machining or drilling operations. After use, loosen the vice to remove the workpiece and clear chips or debris from the jaw surfaces and screw to maintain smooth operation.

Usage recommendations

Use protective jaw pads or soft jaws when clamping delicate or finished surfaces to prevent marking. Regularly clean and lightly lubricate the lead screw and sliding surfaces to extend service life and ensure consistent clamping force. Always verify that the mounting fasteners are secure before applying machining loads.
