Magnetic Jaw Caps for 5.5 in Vises

These aluminum caps attach magnetically to any vise with 5.5 in jaws. They shield both the vise faces and the workpiece from marring and distortion during clamping. The pair fits prism and standard jaw profiles alike. Machinists and fabricators who need quick, non-marring protection will find them convenient.

Sustained clamping performance

The magnetic hold keeps each cap in place through repeated tightening and release cycles. Aluminum construction resists deformation under normal shop loads without transferring marks to soft materials. No adhesive or fasteners are required, so changeover between jobs stays fast.

Jaw width compatibility

Each cap measures 5.5 in wide and long, matching vises with that exact jaw width. Buyers with narrower or wider vises cannot use this pair. The specification is the single factor that determines fit.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the aluminum P-5.5 cap generate during all-day clamping?

The aluminum caps are passive accessories with no moving parts, so they produce no heat and no noise regardless of how long the vise remains clamped.

What must I already own for the 5.5 in magnetic caps to work?

You need a vise with 5.5 in wide jaws; the caps simply snap onto those jaws using their built-in magnets.

Will the 5.5 in prism caps fit the older vise I already have?

They fit any vise type provided the jaw width is exactly 5.5 in, so measure your existing jaws before ordering.
