The Self-Centering Shaft Vice is a precision workholding tool designed to securely clamp and automatically center round shafts, rods, pipes, tubes, and cylindrical components. Its self-centering mechanism ensures that the workpiece remains aligned with the vice centerline, reducing setup time and improving machining accuracy.
- Centering Vices are constructed to hold bars and tubes in firm concentric grip. They feature 4 point clamping contact so work pieces are held securely without hard clamping which can result in damage to delicate parts.
- The Vice is precisely manufactured of highest quality material , has an accuracy of parallelism of .006" per ft.
