Wilton Multi-Purpose Bench Vise, 4-1/2" Width, 4-1/4" Max Jaw Opening, 2-1/4" Throat (Model 450P)

This a great good quality multi purpose vice for a small shop. I’ve had it for almost a year in a humid environment and no surfaces are showing any signs of rust. Definitely worth the price in my opinion.

Worlds apart from cheap Chinese vice it replaced. Absolutely worth the price.

This vise is smaller than I thought it would be. Yes I read the description but . . . it is SMALL. It is NOT for big projects.

I needed a versatile vise for a Gladiator workbench. I have a lot of stuff on my bench, so I wanted something well-made but not too big either. I find that I am usually working with smaller parts for DIY home projects. It's holding the parts in the best position that is tricky. The rotating head and pipe clamp on this model allow you to hold just about anything at a good position for working. Pick up a pair of plastic / rubber jaw guards to make it even better.

This is an excellent quality vice. It offers full rotation both at the base and on the clamp. I’ve had two other lower cost vices and they both failed to meet my expectations. This face was a bit more expensive but well worth the money. Device arrived three days early and was well packaged with no damage whatsoever. I’m very happy with it and would recommend it to anybody that needs a smaller vice with an excellent wide clamping range and versatility to rotate in all directions.

The number of handy features in this little vise was what sold me on it: - Can hold both round and flat objects - Rotatable head means it is easy to do so (e.g. holding a pipe straight up and down). - Anvil - Scale that shows the thickness of what you are clamping.Note that the mounting pattern is trapezoidal, not rectangular. It comes with a printed pattern to help you drill the holes.See Wilton’s product catalog for a comparison chart of their product line up. It isn’t obvious from the names alone (tradesman, machinist, mechanics, shop, etc...) where things stand. The “multi-purpose” series is about 1/3 of the up way from the bottom. It is being used in a light-duty home garage application, so I wanted something not too heavy, but not bottom-of-the-line quality either.

performs true to description.
