Product Description

The Yost Vises V-275 is a portable 2-3/4-Inch Jaw Width Vise. This vise features a vacuum base that allows it to mount to a variety of smooth work surfaces (laminates, steel, granite, glass). The vacuum seal for mounting will only work with wood or other grained surfaces. The vise head swivels 360-Degree and can pivot 90-Degrees. This allows you to work on multiple angles of small part without removing the part from the vise jaws. Soft vise jaws are included for holding parts without marring. Body parts are precision die cast. Vacuum base is operated with steel lever to actuate vacuum. For optimal vacuum operation the rubber base should be cleaned regularly to remove dust and other debris. A few drops of water can be added to the base for the best vacuum holding force.

    58 customers mention15 positive43 negative

    Customers have negative opinions about the suction of the hardware clamp vise. They mention that the suaction base is not great, the sucession cup stopped working after a few months, and the sujection clamp loses pressure very quickly. The bottom attaches via suction cup not clamp, and customers have trouble getting the bottom to stick to their work table. The vacuum base does not stay attached to the mounting surface, and it would not hold on the glass top.

    "...Works wonderful, the only drawback is the bottom attaches via suction cup not clamp...." Read more

    "...Note after a while the suctions does loose it grip just sitting there by itself, so you want to check it to make sure your grip suction is still there" Read more

    "...It has held fast to the smooth clean Formica surfaces on which it was used while I worked, though if sitting for a day I have come back to it with..." Read more

    "...just fine that unit, as received, cannot be used as there is no way to hold it in place while working..." Read more

    Not the same as pictured and not a great vise. Great cust. service though.

    Not the same as pictured and not a great vise. Great cust. service though.
    Be aware, the product in the image is not the same design that they deliver.When mine arrived and i got it set up i noticed that there was a severe wobble in the jaw assembly. The one pictured here shows the stationary jaw as being a single cast piece including the post and ball joint. The design they are now selling makes these 3 individual parts. I've provided an image for comparison.I contacted customer service about the issue and they were very helpful and sent out a replacement that day without needing a return of the defective vise. However, the replacement has a similar problem of wobble. It's not nearly as bad as the first one but it still wobbles a bit. I've decided that since this one still works for what i need it to do i'm not going to try and bother with a return. I'll use it for now until i can find a better solution.The suction isn't great on it's own either. You will need to use some kind of oil or water to moisten the seal in order for it to stick for more than 20 seconds or so. I've given this 3 stars only because customer service was so responsive. For the product itself i'd rate it 2 stars

    5.0 out of 5 stars Solid little vice for hobby and repair work.
    Reviewed in the United States on November 12, 2018
    I like this vice and it has served me well. I wanted to, and have used it for detail work on a western kamisori razor...rewrapping the handle with waxed linen cordage. I also inspect my edge while it and other razors are held by it, will use for cleaning small parts like 2 cycle carb components, repairing/glueing small items, firearm parts/barrel cleaning, modeling, etc. It has held fast to the smooth clean Formica surfaces on which it was used while I worked, though if sitting for a day I have come back to it with the seal lost. No problem to easily reset the suction. I use Ballistol to coat it at the threads and sliding rods, for protection, as that is what I also use on my razors. Good finish on the materials used and nice range of adjustability. Get one if you are a tinkerer/hobbyist like me!
