What Is a Vertical Vise?
A vertical vise is a clamping tool designed for use in an upright orientation, as opposed to the more common horizontal alignment seen in many vises.
This type of vise provides the same clamping force and workpiece security as its horizontal counterparts, but its vertical orientation offers distinct advantages. It is particularly useful for securely holding items that are challenging to clamp horizontally, facilitating easier lifting and more precise machining.
Some vertical vises feature the ability to be mounted both on the side and vertically, adding versatility based on the specific requirements of the workpiece.
Vertical vises are commonly used for tasks that involve crafting small workpieces, filing, cutting, assembling, welding, finishing, and during adhesive curing processes.
