Kurt’s AngLock vise line comprises more than 60 models in 2.5", 4", 6", 8" and 10" jaw widths with many available in manual and hydraulic actuation. The line also includes the recently added Maxlock self-centering multi-axis vises in 2.5" and 4" jaw widths.. The AngLock vise design ensures workpiece stability by providing an opposing, downward force to the moveable jaw as it is tightened. For each pound of clamping pressure produced, the vise induces ½ lb of downward force on the moveable jaw, making these vises very precise.
The company also offers a full lineup of Anglock cluster towers.
