MYTEC Bench Vise or Table Vise, multifunctional jaw, multi-functional Combined Vise with Quick Adjustment, Universal Rotate 360° Work Clamp-On Vise, 3.3" black

The MYTEC 2.5" Clamp-On Vise is a fantastic little tool for light-duty work. I use it on my workbench for small repairs, crafting, and electronics—it clamps securely and holds materials steady without slipping. The cast iron build feels solid, and the jaws align well for precise gripping. What really impressed me is how easy it is to reposition thanks to the clamp-on design, making it perfect for portable setups or limited workspace. For its size, it delivers excellent control and reliability. A great value for hobbyists and DIYers who need dependable grip in a compact form.

This little guy may look small but in use is huge. It's complete quality and you will notice it immediately when you take it out and hold it in your hands. All of the parts are made of exceptional in fit and function. I've used this on so many projects its become a permanent fixture on my garage work bench. I cannot say enough about its strength and flexibility and find myself using my large bench vise less.

The quality of this vise is excellent but it turned out to be larger than what I needed for my purpose. I needed to hold a yarn spinning item to a table top so something much lighter was needed. This is absolutely perfect for anyone's work bench though because of its quality and weight. It just was a bit more than what I needed to I returned it. Good item though.

I like that you can clamp to a table without needing to drill holes. Built very sturdy and is great for medium to light duty jobs. More than adequate. Well built and nicely priced. Also rotates 270 degrees!

I grabbed this to mount on the back of my flat bed truck when I need to file a chainsaw. I knew it was light duty by looking at the photos and the price. I just need something I can toss in the toolbox and bring out when I need to file a saw. I grabbed a return for 20 bucks! It arrived with nothing wrong with it. I tried it out once and it held my 395XP with a 36" bar & chain with no problem. After sharpening the saw, I tossed it back in the toolbox. If this holds up, then it was money well spent. I suppose you could saw, I got a return on my money already, and just the one sharpening for the job I did payed for itself. I was alone and no way could I hold the saw and sharpen it on my own. With that said, it's still exactly what it looks like it is. Don't expect to be able to screw it down super tight and start smacking something in a vice. This is not a "real vice" this is just something to hold something still for you, like a chainsaw bar so you can sharpen the chain for hold a piece of wood so you can clue it together or something like this. If you need a "real vice" this ain't it! If you thought it would be for 20 - 30 bucks, then you're probably a young buck and don't have things figured out just yet lol. A "real vice" for the shop is going to set you back much more than this, OR you might find one at a yard sale or flea market for such prices too. Though those are going to be much heavier an might not want to haul around in a truck all the time, but more for a work bench at home. This is a light duty little holding device, for simple, basic tasks where not much "real man power" for heavy duty, real man jobs need to be done, but light duty, extra hand that a lady could provide you with. For 20 bucks, it is what I expected it to be. If it breaks soon though, just holding a bar for my chainsaw, I'll report back when it fails. Until then, assume it's still holding my chainsaws while I file them. I rated the device for price point. I'll knock stars off, based on how long it lasts. If it lasts as least 6 months for commercial use in my tree service though, I can't knock that. I'd just shell out a few more bucks for a more rugged one. I wanted to try a light duty one first, to see if it's all that's needed for chainsaw sharpening. I suspect it will be. Until you see an update, I've been right.

Let me start with a summary. Pros: - Quick release button allows you to slide the clamp to position. This was the main reason I picked this since not all vises in this class have this. - Can be clamped to a surface or bolted down. - Comes with added clamp accessories that other vises do not come with and at this pricepoint. Cons: - Missing upper surface rubber protector. - Brand new strong sulfur and oil smell due to manufacturing process. - Aesthetically ugly finish (my subjective opinion) - Bottom clamp rubber protector keeps coming off - Screws attaching clamp can easily be stripped due to weak alloy. So, assemble with care. Neutral: - Cartoon character white gloves. My wordy review: I don't understand why this vise clamp comes with a bottom rubber cover to protect the underside of the table but is missing a corresponding upper rubber cover to protect the top surface, which is the most visible part of a table. If you would actually use this vise for any work, there is a chance of scratching or markings or denting the top of whatever furniture is clamped on to unless you place a rag or mat between the part that contacts the vise. Again, I find this absurd that the bottom rubber is provided but nothing for the top. Also the rubber to protect the clamp is warped and keeps falling off. If I was to keep this thing then gluing it in place may be necessary. After opening the jaws, there was a very strong stench of sulfur and oil. I don't know whether this is due to the manufacturing process but it cannot be used indoors in a home setting right out of the box as it was originally intended. Airing out a bench vise was not in my to do list. The paint finish is not black as it appears on certain computer monitors. It's like a dark green speckly mud textured pattern which I find unappealing. This is going to be returned for the reasons stated above. I would rather get a mini vise that I am happy with rather that one to put up with. I may end up going with a different kind of vise altogether since all the table clamp-on ones on Amazon do not have 4 inch or wider jaw sizes for some reason. They only go up to 3.3" at most. I needed a 4 inch vise and wanted to clamp it onto a table for convenience. Drill press vises can be wider and just lay on top of a surface. Other non-clamping vises get even bigger. So, my original idea of having a mini vise for light work that can easily be connected to a furniture table is out the window. They don't seem to exist or have bad reviews or stuck to 3.3" width jaws (like this one) or smaller. Getting a traditional heavy duty one will have more value in that it can do a wider spectrum of tasks than a smaller one even though I don't be able to clamp it to an indoor kitchen table like I originally hoped. I give this three stars because it is functional and does what it is supposed to do. But due to the cons states of why I am returning it, I deducted two stars. I wasn't happy with its flaws.

Great item

Je m'attendais à qq chose de plus costaud. Quand j'ai du gros à faire, je descend dans mon atelier utiliser mon gros étau.

Gute Ware. Passt und hält das, was versprochen wird. Perfekt

Morsa da banco piccola e con la possibilità di ruotarla secondo esicenza nella posizione desiderata. Per me è perfetta

Despite the negative reviews, I have been pleasantly surprised with this little desk vice. Being a more or less unknown brand from China, you never can be sure what you're going to get. Or when for that matter. So after a fair amount of thought, I decided to risk it and ordered the 2.5 inch vice. The first thing to note about this vice is that is a light duty vice. A simple look at it clearly shows that it is in no way suitable as a workshop vice for serious work like sawing wood or anything of that nature. No, this is best suited for lighter crafting type work. It holds light objects in place while you work on them. Some light filing or cutting for modelling or similar activities. The included rubber jaw covers indicate that this is what the manufacturer intends also. Out the box you are immediately are presented with not only the vice, but the included rubber accessories. These take the form of one pair of soft jaw covers and rubber covers for the clamp. I recommend installing all of there straight away before they are lost. There is no point in waiting until you think you need them, because you will, definitely. They are easily removed again if necessary. The next job is to inspect the various metal edges. I found a few small burrs or sharpish edges. A few strokes with a small file took care of those easily enough. The jaws meet nicely. Not perfectly, but we expected that, right? It is close enough unless you are trying to clamp tin foil for some strange reason. They are also removable, which is nice. The slide mechanism works well although it came almost entirely dry and needed lubrication as does the screw. The main screw is tensioned by a spring and washer setup which does make it feel and sound a bit grindy. There is no retention on the slide so it will come off if you keep open the jaws too far. This is nice for maintenance, but could be a problem if you are working and not paying attention. The rotating section likewise needed lubricating and it isn't as smooth as it could be. But it works just fine. Finally I turned my attention to the small anvil. This is probably where it could use the most work if you want to take the time. The construction of the whole body is cast steal and in anvil seemed like wasn't quite ground down properly after casting. It's not bad by any means. But it's not entirely flat either. There was a little cupping in the surface that seems to have been caused by whatever first stage grinding method that was used. The effect is pretty clearly visible and needs some work sanding down to reach proper flatness. But it's not bad as is really. For the price it is pretty good and there is room for touching up these things yourself. Which I would rather be able to do than be stuck with a product that can't be tweaked to how I want it. Being a bare steal surface, the anvil and a few other parts must be kept oiled to prevent rust. In conclusion, I like this little vice quite a lot. I am glad that I took the chance on it. But like all vices, it is designed to do a certain level of work. I am confident that it will perform well as long as it is not abused and overworked. The one thing that failed any sort of quality check was the included gloves. They were too small for an adult and would probably have disintegrated in water. But in fairness we're buying the vice, not the gloves.

My crafty woman loves this thing lol This vise was absolutely perfect addition to my wife's crafting desk. No more cursing when she's cutting little wood sticks :) And it pivots, and it's sturdy as heck; once screwed in the clamping power is great. The package was beat to heck when we got it (I blame the fact that it's a heavy metal object loose in a cardboard box, not the Seller. the vise should be trapped in packing, then put in a box. Like a printer.) Solid, versatile, compact yet powerful. And the price was right. I don't even wanna know how much they wanted for this thing at the box store. Very pleased with my purchase.
