Lie-Nielsen Ductile Iron Holdfast

Lie-Nielsen Ductile Iron Holdfast

Lie-Nielsen's simple, elegant holdfast is great for any hand tool woodworker. It is cast from ductile iron and treated with a hot oil finish. It fits into 3/4 inch dog holes and will hold your workpiece firmly in place with just a tap from your mallet. (You may not even have to do that. We found that it will hold even if you just drop it into the dog hole.) All it takes to remove it is a tap on the back.

The holdfast works well in benches up to 4 inches thick. In benches thicker than 4 inches, you may have to relieve the bottom of the dog hole for the holdfast to grip properly.)
