What is the maximum table width this vise can attach to?

Hi Michael, The maximum table width opening: 2" . It can clamps onto surfaces up to 2" thick. Jaw width: 3" . It works great for me.

I just measured it and it can safely fit over 2". I have one of those 6' white tables that are real common and it fits fine on that.

It is about 7 centimeters. But I would not recommend to buy it - the base broke. The metal is not of high quality.

2 and one eighth inches.if you remove the rubber pad maybe gain another eighth inch for a total of two and a quarter inches.

According to the specifications printed on the box the maximum surface (table) width is 2 inches.

I agree with other reviewers. This Workmate is not intended as a mount for a vise. To a degree, the Workmate is a vise in its own right, and that is about as far as I would go with it. If you want to use a vise, whether metal or wood working, mount it to a proper bench.

I did a little experimenting and the smallest block of wood I could get in it and all the "jaws" clamping it correctly was 2 inch by 4 inch. Of course, you could always use spacers. As far as thickness, I've clamped 1/4 inch thick stuff before, but you can only use slight pressure or the wood will bend.

I cant see why not. No saying..............just use care if not clamping in a vise or a steady work area

It depends on the surface you are attaching the vise to: to a two inch thick bench top, use 1 3/4" lag screws; to a thinner surface, use drill holes that match those in the base of the vise and use 1 3/4" 5/16" bolts with appropriate washers and nuts.

NO, I have mine on a 1 1/2" thick table and it looks like the max would be 1 3/4".

M.N. Most tables will have a gap between the table halves. The clamp is designed to be wide enough to connect both table halves and is over 1" wide. Thanks for considering STIGA!

To account for the washers, I needed about 5" of width under my bench. The mounting template that came with the vise has the dimensions on it. I have it mounted flush and level with the top surface of my bench and it works great. I highly recommend this vise for everyday use.

It shouldn't be a problem for you. My older craftsman had this approximate table size. This is a great product for making a smaller saw seem like a cabinet saw, but still keeping the weight down for easy storage.

Well that depends on how thick the workbench is and how thick the jaw material is. In my case I have 1.5" thick workbench sides and I have 1.5" (2 pieces of 3/4" plywood glued together) at the handle and 1 piece of 3/4" plywood as a vise jaw at the bench side. So I get a good 8" or so before the main screw comes away from the remaining part of the vise which is attached directly behind the side of the bench.

1.75 inches. The inner measurement of the body of the c-clamp is 2 inches, but the circle of metal that sits on top of the bolt makes the maximum table thickness 1.75 inches.

The vise extends about 14" from the inside face when fully closed. That distance will be shortened by the thickness of the wood used and attached to the inside face. Top thickness isn't that critical because the entire assembly is mounted to the underside, I would say a minimum thickness is about 1" to 1-1/2", mine is 3" and I have no issues at all.

sorry. I dont know. I didnt save the box and there isn't anything on the vise.

Hey Bob. The Wilton vise will sit flush with tops up to 3 inches thick. Mine is 2 1/4" so it required a 3/4" shim between the top and the vise. This vise is expensive but worth every penny. It works flawlessly and the quick release feature is the best I've seen. You will have to make some jaw liners but you are a woodworker after all. Piece of cake.

The vise is designed for a 3" or less thick bench.You will have to cut a 2" deep mortise, if you want the top of the vise to be even with the top of the bench.

If the back handles of the clamps are inserted to the table the max is 10". Otherwise, it is possible to utilize 12" when not inserted fully.

I am not near my machine right now but I would say the maximum width of the product is between 4 to 4.5 inches. Hope this helps.
