Bench Vise Proxxon 24260 — Steel, 70 mm Jaw Width, Metallic Finish

Proxxon 24260 bench vise is a compact steel bench-mounted vise with a 70 mm jaw width and metallic finish, engineered for holding small to medium workpieces securely during filing, drilling, sawing or assembly. Milled from steel and completely angular in design, the vise offers precise alignment and consistent clamping force. Supplied with slot stones and fixing screws and delivered in a wooden box, it is suitable for integration with small milling devices such as the Micro Mill MF70 and for use on a compound table like the KT70.

Advantages

The steel construction and milled surfaces ensure durability and accurate mating faces for repeatable clamping. The 70 mm jaw width balances compactness with sufficient clamping area for model making and light workshop tasks. Included slot stones and fixing screws simplify mounting and alignment on a workbench or machine table, while the metallic finish provides resistance to wear in regular hobby and light-duty professional use.

Suitable for

• Holding small to medium metal or plastic workpieces for filing and grinding
• Clamping parts during drilling and light sawing operations
• Model making, precision assembly, and light machining on Micro Mill MF70
• Use on compound tables and small workbenches for repeatable setups

How to use

Mount the vise securely to a workbench or machine table using the supplied fixing screws and slot stones to ensure correct alignment. Position the workpiece between the jaws, tighten the handle until the piece is held firmly but without excessive force that could deform the workpiece. For machining operations such as drilling or milling on compact machines, verify that the workpiece clearance and clamping do not interfere with tool paths. After use, keep the mating faces clean and lightly lubricated to maintain smooth operation and accurate seating.

Usage recommendations

Use the vise primarily for light to medium clamping tasks and small machining or assembly operations. Avoid excessive torque on the screw when clamping delicate parts; use supporting blocks or soft jaw covers when working with soft materials to prevent marking. Regularly inspect and clean the sliding and screw mechanisms and apply light lubrication to prolong service life.
