Jefferson 8″ Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Bench Vice
In every serious workshop, there’s one tool that quietly carries the weight of countless jobs — the bench vice. The Jefferson 8″ Heavy-Duty Cast Iron Bench Vice is built for exactly that role, delivering uncompromising strength, control, and reliability where it matters most.
Cast from robust grey cast iron, this vice is engineered to withstand repeated high-load clamping without flexing or distortion. Its solid construction provides the confidence required for precision engineering, mechanical repair, and fabrication work, where stability is essential and failure isn’t an option.
At the centre of its performance are the 200mm serrated jaws, designed to bite securely into a wide range of materials. From flat steel and round bar to boxed sections and heavy components, the jaws hold firm under pressure. The generous 200mm jaw opening adds valuable versatility, allowing larger workpieces to be clamped without compromise — ideal for busy workshops where efficiency matters.
Operation is smooth, controlled, and predictable thanks to the fast-action spindle and heavy-duty operating lever. This allows consistent pressure to be applied with minimal effort, whether you’re making fine adjustments or locking down for heavy-duty work. Pre-drilled mounting holes come as standard, ensuring quick installation and a rock-solid fix to your workbench for maximum safety and stability during demanding tasks.
Designed to be a permanent fixture rather than a temporary solution, the Jefferson 8″ Bench Vice is a tool you can rely on day after day — dependable, precise, and built to last.
