Bench Vise

A bench vise is a mechanical device designed for securely clamping objects to a workbench or similar surface. It typically consists of two jaws—one fixed and the other movable—operated by a threaded spindle. The jaws can be tightened or released to hold an object firmly in place, providing stability and support for various tasks such as woodworking, metalworking, or other manual work. Bench vises are essential tools in workshops and are commonly used for tasks that require precision and a stable work holding solution.

Bench Yoke Vise

A bench yoke vise, often referred to simply as a bench vise, is a mechanical device designed for holding workpieces securely in place on a workbench or other stable surface. It typically consists of two jaws—one fixed and one movable—operated by a threaded spindle. The movable jaw can be adjusted to hold various sizes of objects, and the tightening of the spindle provides a firm grip on the workpiece. Bench yoke vises are widely used in woodworking, metalworking, and other trades to facilitate precision work by providing a stable and secure platform for tasks such as cutting, shaping, filing, or assembling materials.
