Know before you buy

Vise Hardware & Bench Vises

A good vise turns a table into a workbench. Build your own front or tail vise with the hardware kits, add a clamp-on vise for small parts, or use pipe clamps for long glue-ups.

Do the kits include the wooden jaws?

No, hardware kits include the screw and guides. You add your own wooden chops.

What pipe do pipe clamps use?

Standard 3/4 in. black pipe, sold separately at hardware stores.

What warranty and returns do I get?

Every tool ships free in the US with a 12-month warranty and 30-day returns.

Buying guide

How to hold work steady

Work that moves ruins cuts and costs fingers. Dogs, hold-downs and horizontal toggle clamps lock parts to the bench or jig so both hands stay on the tool.

Match dog diameter to your bench holes, size a toggle clamp to the force you need, and add track where you want adjustable stops.

Check hole size

Most benches use 19-20 mm or 3/4 in. dog holes.

Clamp low

Hold-downs close to the cut reduce chatter.

Add a stop

A planing stop keeps boards from sliding.

Common questions

Which dog size fits my bench?

Measure your holes and match the listed diameter.

Do they work on MFT-style tops?

Many do; see the listing.

Is there a warranty?

Every SQUAREFORGE tool has a 12-month warranty and 30-day returns.
