Mini Bench Vice | 3.5" Cast Aluminium Body | Steel Screw & Handle | 30mm Max Jaw Opening | 9x9cm | Table Clamp Fits Up to 35mm | Jewellery Hobby Crafts Model Making Electronics RC | Portable Lightweight

A 3.5" Mini Bench Vice with Cast Aluminium Body and Steel Screw — 30mm Max Jaw Opening, 9x9cm, Table Clamp Fits Surfaces Up to 35mm Thick, Lightweight at 149g, Jewellery Hobby Crafts Model Making Electronics RC

Secure small workpieces on a table or workbench with this mini bench vice, 3.5" in size with a cast aluminium body and steel screw and handle, measuring 9cm long by 9cm wide and weighing 149g. The vice jaw opens to a maximum of 30mm to accommodate small components, and the table mounting clamp fits securely to surfaces up to 40mm deep and 35mm thick, allowing the vice to be clamped to a desk edge, workbench lip or hobby table without permanent fixing. The cast aluminium body is lightweight compared to a full-size steel bench vice, making it practical to move between workspaces or carry to a project location. Suitable for jewellery making, hobbyist projects, crafts, scale model building, RC car and aircraft assembly, electronics work and any other task requiring a small, stable workpiece holder. Item Ref: 1005005860867546.

Why You’ll Love It

• Cast aluminium body keeps the vice lightweight at 149g while maintaining rigidity for small workpiece tasks — The mini bench vice’s cast aluminium construction reduces the unit weight to 149g compared to the 1–2kg weight of a comparable steel bench vice jaw size, making it practical to lift and reposition between worktables, carry to a hobby club or take to a project site — while still providing the rigidity needed to hold small jewellery components, PCBs, model parts and thin stock securely without the vice flexing or the jaw slipping under the light clamping forces typical of hobby and craft work.
• Table clamp fits desk and workbench edges up to 40mm deep and 35mm thick without permanent fixing — The mini bench vice’s integrated table clamp allows the vice to be secured to any flat desk edge or workbench lip within the 40mm depth and 35mm thickness range without drilling, bolting or otherwise permanently fixing the vice to the surface — making it suitable for use on a home desk, dining table or folding hobby table where a permanently mounted vice is not practical, and allowing the vice to be repositioned to a different surface edge whenever the working angle or available workspace changes.
• 30mm maximum jaw opening suits the component sizes typical in jewellery, electronics and model making — The mini bench vice’s 30mm jaw opening range covers the component widths most commonly held during jewellery soldering and shaping (individual links, clasps, small bezels), electronics assembly (PCB edges, connector bodies, wire harness clips) and scale model construction (body panels, chassis rails, small fittings) — tasks where a full-size bench vice with a 50–150mm jaw opening provides far more clamping width than the workpiece requires, and where the large fixed footprint of a full-size vice occupies a disproportionate share of a limited hobby desk surface.
