When it comes to securing workpieces firmly in place, maintaining uniform pressure is paramount. By inserting a vise spacer with the same thickness as the stock at the opposite end of the vise, it ensures that the clamping force remains consistent throughout the operation.
One of the primary concerns when using bench vises is the potential for rack deformation. This occurs when excessive force is applied unevenly, causing the vise to bend or distort over time. By incorporating vise spacers into the setup, the distribution of pressure becomes more uniform, significantly reducing the risk of rack deformation and preserving the integrity of the vise.
Uneven support can compromise the stability of the workpiece and increase the likelihood of breakage or slippage. Bench vise spacers provide a reliable solution by offering consistent support throughout the clamping process. By mitigating the influence of uneven forces, these spacers help maintain the integrity of the stock and enhance overall workpiece stability.
Bench vise spacers consist of high-density polyethylene (HDPE) shims, designed to withstand the rigors of industrial applications. Comprising 30 individual shims, each measuring 0.1 inch (2.54mm) in thickness, these accessories offer a total thickness of 3 inches (76.2mm) for substantial clamping support.
Crafted from premium-grade materials such as HDPE, brass nuts, and galvanized steel threaded rods, bench vise spacers boast exceptional durability and resistance to wear and tear. The combination of robust construction materials ensures longevity, making them indispensable additions to any workshop or fabrication environment.
