IRWIN Drill Press Vise, 4.5” Jaw Capacity, Forged Iron for Ultimate Durability, Slotted Base for Easy Installation (226340)

Takes a beating!!! Keeps on doing the job 💪💪. Great product to buy.

It is difficult to find good quality at a decent price these days. Irwin usually comes through. It is not daily use professional durable, but for the occasional use it more than suits my needs. Easy to mount and use on my Wen drill press and provides a strong hold.

quality tool, affordable price , user friendly, received in good condition.. no missing or damaged parts... fits my 10 in, drill press, use 2 welding clamps to hold in place..... HOWEVER.... all machined edges sharp as razor blades.. need to hand file ... jaws surface excess burrs ...leaves marks on item being clamped.. need to hand file.. phillips screws loose... need to tighten... they were countersunk enough - good... threaded main clamp screw works well, straight, but sloppy threads...no jaw binding...smooth action.. bottom is generally flat and mates well with drill press platform with almost no 3 point wobble..... would have prefered added small vertical and horizontal vee groves in one jaw to better grip and hold items perpendicular or horizontal .... added very thin coat of 3 in 1 non detergent oil on all machined surfaces... to reduce future rust ... almost a 5 star... but didn't quite make it.. i recommend.. I would purchase again..

I need to do some precision grinding on a small metal object and needed this instead of my huge bench vise so I could do my work on the porch plus be able to move this around much easier to do my precision work and the plus for me is that I plan on getting a drill press later on for my workshop so it was a no brainer to go ahead and get this type of vise for future use on many projects. I was actually surprised at the quality when I opened the package. This is a very sturdy and solid made vise and should last you a lifetime. I am well pleased and it was a great deal larger than I expected which is also a pro for this item. I highly recommend this item if you are in need of this type of vise. You won't regret it.

I needed a small vice to hold little things on the drill press. I don’t have this bolted to my vice table as the things I drill are of all kinds of different shapes and sizes and need different positions a lot so I hold one end with my hand.For drilling little pieces or parts that don’t require high accuracy, this works really well and I’m very happy with it. It holds the part safely and securely and keeps my hands out of the drill (which was the main reason I got it).I definitely am getting the function out of it that I expected and the price was perfect for that.When I need something more accurate and/or am making multiple pieces the same, I go to a different solution.

Great clamp.

This vise is really heavy duty. Machined surface slide. Overkill for my smaller drill press but i like the 4 1/2 open. I have had 4 inch in the past and seems like there was always something that just wouldnt quite fit. If you need a heavy duty vise this is it.

Works great!
