GearWrench GWBVA4 4" Heavy-Duty 30,000 PSI Cast Iron Bench Vise with Anvil & 360° Swivel Base

The GearWrench GWBVA4 4-inch heavy-duty bench vise secures flat stock, round tubing, and structural metal components with 30,000 PSI tensile strength cast iron clamping power. Engineered with serrated heat-treated steel jaw faces alongside integrated lower pipe jaws, this 36.1-pound workshop vise locks workpieces solidly in place during aggressive cutting, grinding, deburring, and threading operations. Outfitted with an integrated wide anvil striking face for cold metal forming, a smooth 360-degree interlocking swivel base with dual lockdown nuts, four pre-drilled bench mounting holes, and a high-visibility molten orange and black powder coat finish, it equips automotive technicians, metal fabricators, and maintenance specialists with rigid, heavy-duty holding performance.

Best Used For:

  • Automotive Component Rebuilding and Thread Chasing: Holding brake calipers, tie rod ends, control arms, and rusted fasteners securely for precision extraction and tap-and-die thread repairs.
  • Custom Metal Fabrication and Cold Forming: Hammering brackets, flattening stock, and bending sheet metal flanges directly on the broad machined solid steel anvil horn.
  • Round Conduit and Structural Pipe Clamping: Gripping cylindrical metal pipes, drive shafts, and exhaust tubing firmly using the integrated lower serrated pipe jaws without slippage.

Key Performance & Safety Features

  • 30,000 PSI Cast Iron Casting: Heavy-duty iron body absorbs severe mechanical clamping pressures and percussive hammer strikes without cracking.
  • Dual Flat and Pipe Jaw Profiles: Hardened, heat-treated serrated jaws provide positive multi-axis traction across both flat rectangular bars and round pipes.
  • Machined Heavy-Duty Anvil Surface: Broad flat anvil pad provides a stable, hardened metal workspace for shaping, peening, and striking operations.
  • 360-Degree Locking Swivel Base: Rotates completely to position workpieces at optimum ergonomic angles and locks rigidly via heavy-duty lockdown handles.
  • Four-Hole Direct Bench Mounting: Broad base flange incorporates four sturdy bolt holes to ensure unyielding mechanical anchorage to heavy workbenches.
  • Molten Orange Powder Coating: Premium electrostatic finish resists automotive grease, harsh chemical solvents, rust, and abrasion in high-production shops.

Pro-Tip: Mount the stationary rear jaw slightly proud of your workbench front edge; this allows long pipes and structural angle iron to pass vertically in front of the tabletop without interference from the bench apron.
