Start a Custom Bench Vise ProjectThe French-Style Movable Anvil Vise follows the classic French bench-vise pattern — a wide ductile-iron body with smooth thread and a movable anvil plate for metalworking, woodworking and assembly in professional workshops. The generous body width keeps the jaws parallel under load, while the movable anvil plate positions work at the optimal angle for filing, fitting and finishing.
Construction and materials
The body is cast in ductile iron for superior impact resistance and rigidity, then CNC-machined with hardened jaws at 58–62 HRC. The smooth thread delivers effortless, precise jaw travel, and the movable anvil plate provides a versatile working surface beside the jaws. The wide casting ensures the front jaw stays parallel even under heavy clamping force.
Tested like every Stavalk vise
Every unit is verified for clamping force, jaw hardness and 10,000+ cycle durability, then completed with a 48-hour salt-spray corrosion test. Records are logged per batch under full ERP traceability.
