Flip up a simple lever to disengage the Acme-threaded center screw to pull and push the vise freely and smoothly to accommodate your stock. Flip the lever down to engage the threads then turn the handle for tightening.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   Overall travel for the screw mechanism is a robust 12-1\/4″ (less the thickness of your wooden jaw and bench apron).  The close tolerance machining minimizes jaw sag, even when fully extended.  An extruded aluminum cover over the main screw protects your work from touching oily lubrication and keeps debris from the threads.  This vise can apply up to 400 lbs, of force clamping (and spreading).\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   Perfect for a new bench design or for retrofitting an existing bench, the vise mounting footprint needed for bolting it to the underside of your bench measures 12″  wide x  16″  deep (with a 2″  thick bench apron and a 1-3\/4″  thick jaw).\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   Includes a hardwood handle with screw cap ends.  Wooden jaw pad not included.  The instructions show fabricating a wooden jaw at 18″  wide, though you can make it shorter as needed.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n   Designed and made in Canada to the exacting standards you’ve come to know and expect from Veritas®.

Tight body tolerances result in minimal jaw sag, even at full extension. An extruded aluminum\n screw cover keeps debris out of the screw mechanism and prevents the workpiece from contacting the\n lubricated screw.\n\nStraightforward to install in new construction or as a retrofit to an existing bench, the vise requires\n an unobstructed mounting area on the underside of the bench top at least 12\" wide by 16\" deep (with a\n 2\" thick bench apron and a 1-3\/4\" thick jaw).\n\nThe body is ductile iron with zinc-alloy endplates, steel shafts and guide rods, and a maple handle.\n Mounting instructions and hardware included.\n\nAvailable separately, the optional pair of top-grain leather jaw liners serves to pad the vise jaws,\n helping to improve their grip as well as reduce workpiece marring.\n\nMeasuring 20\" wide by 5\" tall, the liners are shaped to fit this front vise, but can be used with\n any front vise mechanism with guide rods 10\" apart or less. Installation instructions included.\n\n--\u003e\n \n\u003c\/body\u003e","brand":"Veritas Tools","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50822009258266,"sku":"177144","price":409.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0904\/5167\/3370\/files\/177144.jpg?v=1768342703","url":"https:\/\/www.highlandwoodworking.com\/products\/veritas-quick-release-front-vise","provider":"Highland Woodworking","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
