Wilton 404-8 copper vise jaws

The Wilton 404-8 copper replacement vise jaw pair is made for machinists and fabricators who need to protect finished surfaces during clamping. Each jaw is manufactured from copper to prevent marring on soft metals, plastics or polished workpieces. They fit Wilton vises with an 8 in jaw width and are supplied as a matched pair for immediate installation.

Thermals noise and power

These jaws have no moving parts, motors or electrical components, so they generate no heat, produce no noise and draw no power during use. Copper construction provides natural corrosion resistance and stable performance across typical workshop temperatures. The material will not contaminate sensitive alloys or leave residue on clean parts.

Pair inclusion and workholding versatility

The package includes one pair of jaws, allowing both sides of the vise to be fitted at once for balanced clamping. They are designed for permanent installation on a dedicated vise or temporary swaps when a job requires non-marring contact. No additional hardware or software is required to put them into service.

Questions about this item

How do I fit the Wilton 404 copper jaws onto my 8 in vise, and what step is often missed?

The jaws are replacement caps that sit over the existing steel faces. The step people miss is cleaning the old faces first; any grit stops the copper from seating flat and mars the workpiece.

What maintenance or replacement will these copper jaws need later?

Copper is softer than steel, so the faces will deform after repeated clamping. Plan to replace the pair when the surfaces become too marred to protect the workpiece.

What limit shows up first when I use these jaws continuously on heavy jobs?

The 4.8 weight reflects solid copper; the limit is the material itself. Under sustained high pressure the jaws will mushroom or bend before the steel vise frame does.
