BV-HW45 Light-Duty Bench Vise, 4-1/2 In. Jaw, Swivel Base

The Bessey BV-HW45 is a light-duty bench vise designed for woodworking, furniture assembly, metal shaping, and general shop tasks. Its 4-1/2 inch jaw opening and 4 inch jaw width provide a solid clamping surface for holding workpieces securely during drilling, cutting, shaping, and assembly work. The swivel base rotates up to 270 degrees, allowing you to position your work at any angle without removing the vise from your bench—ideal when you need to access different sides of a project or work at a comfortable angle.

Built from cast iron with a gray finish, this vise withstands the demands of a busy workshop. The incorporated anvil surface is useful for shaping metal. Four mounting holes make installation straightforward, and a single lock-down bolt secures the swivel base once you've positioned it.
