Frequently Asked Questions

What jaw width should I choose for my workshop vice?

For general workshop use, a 100-125mm jaw width offers excellent versatility. Lighter hobby work suits 75-100mm vices, whilst heavy engineering and fabrication demands 150mm or larger. Consider the typical size of workpieces you'll handle most frequently.

Can Siegen vices be mounted on any workbench?

Siegen vices feature standard bolt-through mounting patterns suitable for most sturdy workbenches. Ensure your bench thickness is at least 40mm hardwood or equivalent, and position the vice with the fixed jaw flush with the bench edge for optimal clamping of long workpieces.

Are replacement jaws available for Siegen vices?

Yes, many Siegen vices feature replaceable jaw faces, allowing you to fit soft jaws for delicate work or replace worn serrated jaws to maintain grip performance. This extends the working life of your vice considerably and provides added versatility.
