Bench Vise MODECO MN-35-206 150 mm swivel workshop vise

Bench vise MODECO MN-35-206 150 mm swivel workshop vise is a compact clamping tool designed for general workshop use. The vise provides a 150 mm jaw width and a swivel base to position the workpiece for cutting, filing, drilling or assembly. Its robust construction and mounting holes allow secure attachment to a workbench, enabling stable holding of metal, wood and other materials during manual and light machine work.

Advantages

The vise combines a broad 150 mm jaw span with a sturdy screw mechanism to deliver consistent clamping force. A swivel base permits rotation and precise positioning without removing the workpiece from the bench, while the solid cast or forged body resists deformation under load. Mounting holes on the base simplify installation on various work surfaces and the jaw faces are suitable for a range of materials, from softwood to mild steel.

Suitable for

• Holding metal parts during filing, grinding and drilling
• Clamping wooden pieces for sawing, sanding and assembly
• General DIY repair and assembly tasks in garages and hobby workshops
• Light machining and measurement operations where steady positioning is required

Key specifications

• Jaw width: 150 mm
• Swivel base for rotational positioning
• Robust body designed for stable clamping
• Screw-type clamping mechanism
• Base with mounting holes for bench attachment

How to use

Secure the vise to a sturdy workbench using appropriate bolts through the base mounting holes. Open the jaws by turning the handle counterclockwise, place the workpiece between the jaw faces, then turn the handle clockwise until the workpiece is held firmly. To change the orientation, unlock the swivel base, rotate to the required angle and re-tighten the swivel lock. Check that the workpiece is held square and stable before cutting, drilling or filing.

Usage recommendations

For best performance, choose bolts and washers suited to your bench material and regularly inspect the screw and jaw faces for wear. Use protective jaw covers when clamping delicate surfaces and avoid over-tightening on brittle materials. Periodic lubrication of the screw and swivel joint helps maintain smooth operation.
