Magnetic Jaw Caps for 4.5 Inch Vises

These aluminium caps fit any vise with a 4.5 inch jaw width and come in a pack of two. Integrated magnets hold each cap securely in place during clamping operations. They shield both the vise jaws and the workpiece from marring or distortion. The prism profile helps grip round or irregular stock.

Replaces Worn or Missing Jaw Protectors

Swap them in when original caps are lost, cracked or no longer grip the vise face. The magnetic attachment is worth it if you frequently change setups and want faster changeovers than bolt-on or adhesive alternatives. No tools are needed to install or remove them.

Suits Machinists and Fabricators Needing

Ideal for anyone who must protect finished surfaces on aluminium, brass or soft steel. Builders who need wider or narrower caps, or who require serrated faces for aggressive holding, should look elsewhere. The fixed 4.5 inch size limits use to matching vises only.

Questions about this item

What vise jaw width does the 4.5 in magnetic jaw cap fit?

The cap is designed for a 4.5 in vise jaw width and measures 4.5 in wide by 4.5 in long, matching standard vise jaws of that size.

How are the magnetic jaw caps installed, and what mistake should be avoided?

Place each aluminum cap onto the vise jaws; the built-in magnets hold them securely. Ensure the prism faces contact the workpiece so the jaws and part are both protected from marring.

When should the pair of magnetic jaw caps be replaced?

Replace the caps if the aluminum faces become gouged, the prism profile wears flat, or the magnets no longer hold the caps firmly against the vise jaws during clamping.
