Click to expand... would need to be carbon steel if you were hardening them bms would be ok if you didn't need them hard . depends what you are gripping

gordon stephenson Member Messages 7,447 Location Skelton in Cleveland U.K. May 15, 2019 #9 Vice jaws do not seem to be interchangeable, Particularly Record, You would think that their jaws could be turned top to bottom for a fresh top edge, but Oh no the screw holes are not on the centre line!! Makes sense to them, Sell more jaws!! Last edited: May 15, 2019
