Ridgid 40090 Bench Yoke Vise 12 .13 3 in

Bench Yoke Vise 1/8-3 in capacity

The Ridgid 40090 is a bench-mounted yoke vise designed to grip metal pipe from 1/8 in up to 3 in diameter. It suits plumbers and maintenance crews who need a fixed station for threading, cutting or bending pipe on site. The unit stands 12 1/2 in tall and includes an integrated pipe rest and bender for single-tool workflows. Buyers who need to clamp larger diameters or require a portable tripod stand should look elsewhere.

Manual operation thermal noise power

Because the vise is actuated by a mounting screw handle, it generates no heat, no audible noise and draws no electrical power during use. Clamping force is applied entirely by the operator, so there are no motor-related thermal limits or duty-cycle restrictions. The all-plastic construction in office white does not conduct heat from the workpiece to the user's hands. No power source or compressed air connection is required.

Plastic build mounting screw handle

The body is moulded in plastic with an office white finish, keeping weight low for bench installation while resisting corrosion from pipe residue. A mounting screw handle secures the vise to the work surface and provides the mechanical advantage needed to hold pipe up to 3 in. Integrated pipe rest and bender features mean the operator can support and form pipe without changing tools. The fixed 12 1/2 in height suits standard bench ergonomics.
