Minneapolis, Minnesota – Machinists needing the most precise and flexible 5-axis workholding will find Kurt’s new MaxLock™ HP420 5-Axis Vises the answer. For maximum 5-axis workholding rigidity, these vises combat jaw deflection and part lift with Kurt AngLock design and Kurt’s new patented lift control system. For precision parts, this could mean the difference between machining pass or rejects.

Kurt’s New Self-Centering MaxLock™ HP420 5-Axis Vise Is Available In 5, 7 and 9-Inch Models.

Providing ±0.0005 inch repeatability, these MaxLock HP420 Vises have a center line that easily adjusts to the center of the table rotation. Clamping can be achieved for both O.D. and I.D. while holding parts up to 6.690 inches long.

For maximum workholding flexibility, these vises are designed with two sets of jaws – serrated and dovetail. Each jaw set provides 3 different clamping areas—at the bed, in the middle of the jaw and at the top of the jaw. Another important feature, vise jaws adjust from either side of the vise and have an opening capability of 2.190 inches to 6.690 inches depending on vise model and jaw option selected.

In addition, vise bodies are precision machined from 60,000 psi ductile iron for maximum rigidity and vibration damping. These vises have hardened ways, 4140 heat treated steel jaws, ¾ inch diameter screws for extra strength and heavy duty bolt down design with ½ inch cap screws. The vise screw is internally hexed for a smaller footprint.

Available in 5, 7 and 9-inch models, MaxLock HP420 vises are backed by Kurt’s exclusive Lifetime Iron Clad warranty.
