Veritas Tucker Vice
Ref: VG0901
The Tucker Vice is the best woodworking vice made in the world today. Veritas have the awards to prove it!
The vice has 13" wide jaws that open 12" and have a 4" throat depth. It has double guide rods, a 1" main screw, and it weighs 50 lb. The most impressive feature is the full rotation and tilt capability the vice rotates 360 degrees and tilts from horizontal to vertical and can be locked at any combination of points in the two planes. The front jaw is normally locked in the parallel position, but can also be swivelled 10 degrees either way and locked (or left free floating) to hold tapered work.
Another feature is the automatic opening. An adjustable-tension device opens the vice when the top-release bar or the foot pedal is pressed, leaving your hands free to position the workpiece(s). The jaws are fitted with non-marring leather liners. Four 6" round dogs (two in each jaw) hold work up to 13" wide or 15" in diameter. Double guide rods are mounted slightly higher than the screw to prevent work marring. The vice is suspended from a mounting plate that forms half of the tilt hinge. An extra mounting plate and stanchion set is available to mount the vice in a second location.
The main vice parts are cast and machined from ZA-12, an alloy as strong as cast iron, but less brittle, at only 80% of the weight. The castings have a lifetime guarantee against breakage. Other components are made of steel, brass, and aluminum. All parts (hinges, chain, spring, etc.) to build the foot pedal mechanism are included except the wood.
The tremendous capacity of the vice, the integral dogs, the rotation, tilt, swivel, the quick release and automatic opening features let you use this vise for many functions that would otherwise require special jigs and fixtures. It replaces many other specialized tools. Above all, it is easy to use.
