Protect finished surfaces – thanks to Horizontal V-profile
Horizontal V-profile offers a shaped contact surface that cradles round stock and gives secure support to flat components. The profile reduces direct point contact where jaws would otherwise leave impressions.
Prevents indentations and keeps edges clean when clamping, making finishing work quicker and neater.
Secure fit for quick setup – with embedded magnetic strips
Embedded magnetic strips adhere directly to steel vice jaws and hold the protectors in place without additional fasteners. Magnetic attachment allows repeatable positioning with minimal fuss.
Slides into place quickly and stays put during normal clamping, reducing repositioning and saving time.
Lightweight, durable protection – with aluminium construction
Aluminium construction keeps each jaw protector lightweight while supporting a robust design intended for workshop use. Material choice balances ease of handling with repeated-use durability.
Easy to handle during set-up yet built to withstand regular clamping, so protectors remain useful over time.
