Description

The 160mm Camlock Machine Vice from Bison, model 6517-M160, is a versatile, precision workholding solution designed for milling machines and drill presses. It helps you clamp workpieces quickly and securely, enabling accurate machining with less setup time. Built for a wide range of applications, this vise delivers reliable performance whether you’re setting up a single part or running repetitive operations.

Key to its fast, repeatable clamping is the cam locking system that lets you position both the movable jaw and the rear jaw in multiple predefined positions. This means faster setups, easier adjustments, and consistent gripping across different parts, helping you keep production moving smoothly.

  • Cam-Lock Jaw Positioning for Fast Setup: Quickly adjust the movable and rear jaws to multiple positions for repeatable, secure clamping with minimal handling, reducing downtime between setups.
  • Interchangeable Hardened Jaw Inserts: Removable grooved jaw inserts (one side smooth, the other grooved) are hardened and ground for long service life and reliable grip, with easy refresh when worn.
  • Durable, Dirt-Resistant Construction: Fully covered lead screw protects against dirt and chips; body and rear jaw are high-quality castings with a fully ground steel position beam for long-lasting accuracy in demanding shop environments.

Designed for use with milling machines and drill presses, this vice includes standard accessories such as a handcrank and slot nuts, ensuring you can set up and begin work quickly. With its robust build and thoughtful jaw design, the 6517-M160 delivers dependable performance, precise alignment, and a safer, cleaner machining process—so you can focus on getting precise results every time.
