Tools and Hardware Reviews of Proxxon 28132 Machine Vise MS 4Customer Review: Not a precision vise...Now, Made in Taiwan.. Summary: 3 Stars
It's an O.K. Vise for crude or free hand drilling and other craft work.
This vise is a knock off of the Japanese made one offered by Micro Mark. Theirs is aluminum and both have the tendency of the movable jaw to rise when tightened. This Proxxon vize is made of Zamak zinc alloy.
The description says that this vise will work with the MF70 mill and with their X-Y positioning table. Yes, but the results will be disappointing.
Thier 24260 solid steel machine vises are much better. I have one that I an satisfied with and have been using for 6 years. I just ordered two more. I hope they are still made in Germany.
The hold down slots using M6x1 hex headed screws and using a 10mm open end wrench is very arkward. I drilled a couple of 1/4 inch holes right above the screw position trough the bottom jaw surface of the vise and used 10-32 socket headed set screws. The steel is not hardened and any high speed steel drill bit will work. This allows me to use 10-32 square nuts with my Proxxon MF70 mill, standard T-nuts with my Taig Micro-Mill, standard T-nuts with my Sherline mill, any T-nut supplied by A2Z-CNC with any other mini or micro mill.
Description of Proxxon 28132 Machine Vise MS 4Perfect for Bench Drill Machine T B M 115 and Drill Stand M B 140/S. The perfect accessory easy and quick to install. The vise is made of die-cast zinc and has three machined sides. The grooved base fits perfectly the adjustable fence of either Drill Stand M B 140/S or Bench Drill Machine T B M 115. The jaws are 2" wide and 25/64" high and provide horizontal and vertical V-slots for holding round work pieces. The maximum clamping width is 1 11/32". The anvil top with a cast-in hole is optimal for supporting small and fine parts when drilling. Proxxon tools come with a 2 year factory warranty.
