DAWN manufacture and market the most comprehensive range of vices, our 90 years experience in manufacturing vices have gone into design, accuracy, and gripping capacity. DAWN vices are unequalled for quality and value.
Our most commonly used vices for workshops and garages.
Features:
High strength cast iron body and slide produced by an automated foundry ensuring good quality control.Body and slide accurately machined for perfect mating and smooth operation.
Nut is housed in the body and gives long service without wear.Nut is detachable and can be replaced.
Corrosion resistant heavy duty screw and handle.Head of screw and knobs on handle are forged – won’t shear off.Fine pitched Acme thread ensure long life and positive action.
Case hardened steel jaws, serrated to provide good grip, removable and replaceable – thus extends life of vice.
Deflector keeps filings away from moving parts – thus reducing wear.
Where an operation needs to be approached from several different directions, the robust swivel base enables the vice to be smoothly rotated through 360 degrees, so the work need not be removed from the vice and relocated. Two holding down screws lock the vice firmly in any position. The swivel base assembly can be purchased separately to suit any size of Engineers’ vice.
Super grade vices are the strongest in the range of vices we manufacture. It gives positive grip without springing. The vice body and slide are made from spheroidal graphite (S.G.) or ductile iron. This material is similar to cast steel in tensile strength and yet supremely rigid; ideal for heavy-duty applications such as chipping, hammering, automotive and truck servicing. Super grade vices are GUARANTEED AGAINST BREAKAGE. Finish – Light Hammertone Green
