The Wuber W50003 is a heavy-duty swivel bench vice built from HT200 grey cast iron with graphite flakes, offering a jaw width of 150 mm and a total weight of 13.80 kg. The 360° rotating base allows the workpiece to be repositioned to any angle without relocating the vice itself. The cold-rolled Tr16×4 trapezoidal lead screw delivers a harder and smoother thread profile than machined alternatives, resulting in consistent, quiet operation under repeated use.

The HT200 cast iron body absorbs vibration effectively during filing, drilling and grinding, preventing the workpiece from bouncing or entering resonance – a characteristic advantage over thin-walled steel bodies in the same price bracket. The integrated 90 × 90 mm anvil adds versatility for light striking work directly at the bench, reducing the need for additional equipment.

With four mounting holes and a substantial footprint of 190 × 150 × 365 mm, the W50003 stays firmly in place on any workshop bench. It suits professional workshops, garages and metalworking environments across Europe where reliable clamping performance is required day to day.

What is the Wuber W50003 and why should you choose it?

The Wuber W50003 is a rotating bench vice with a 150 mm jaw width manufactured from HT200 cast iron – a material widely used in heavy industry, automotive engineering and machine manufacturing for its vibration-damping properties and wear resistance. At 13.80 kg and measuring 190 × 150 × 365 mm, it is substantially more robust than many comparable models in its class, which directly translates to greater stability during work. The cold-rolled trapezoidal lead screw Tr16×4 with a 4 mm pitch allows jaws to close quickly and resists wear over long-term use.

Which environments is this bench vice suited for?

The Wuber W50003 is suited for hobby workshops, garages, plumbing workshops, metal fabrication shops and machine halls across Europe. The 360° swivel base and integrated anvil make it a versatile choice for clamping, filing, drilling, threading, cutting and light striking work. Secured with four bolts to a solid workbench, it delivers reliable performance under daily load.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Is the Wuber W50003 bench vice suitable for daily use in a professional workshop?

Yes, the Wuber W50003 is built for regular workshop use. The HT200 cast iron body with a total weight of 13.80 kg and dimensions of 190 × 150 × 365 mm provides the stability needed during drilling, filing and threading. The cold-rolled Tr16×4 trapezoidal lead screw maintains smooth operation without seizing even under repeated heavy use.

What are the jaw width and maximum opening of the Wuber W50003 and how does it compare to lighter vices?

The Wuber W50003 has a jaw width of 150 mm and a maximum opening of 150 mm. The integrated anvil measures 90 × 90 mm. Compared to lighter alternatives – which typically weigh around 7–8 kg – the W50003 at 13.80 kg is considerably heavier, directly reducing movement during work. The HT200 cast iron construction also dampens vibration more effectively than thin-walled steel alternatives.

What is the integrated anvil on the Wuber W50003 used for and what size is it?

The anvil on the Wuber W50003 measures 90 × 90 mm and is designed for light striking tasks such as straightening small components, pressing parts in or out, and cold forming of metal. It removes the need for a separate anvil for simpler jobs at the workbench, making the W50003 a more versatile clamping tool in the garage and workshop.
