Palmgren’s combination bench-and-pipe vise features a power tunnel with a straight-line pull that is said to guarantee that its spindle and nut will never wear out over its lifetime. The spindle and nut are housed in square tube casting for protection from dust, chips and moisture, providing lifetime lubrication. The precision fit of the slide bar eliminates side play and jaw wobble even when clamping with open jaws. The vise comes with a lifetime warranty and is available in three models with jaw widths of 5", 6" and 8".
