Wilton CBV-65 portable vise

The Wilton CBV-65 is a 2-1/2 inch light duty portable vise built for hobbyists and light workshop tasks. Its ductile iron body and serrated jaw face hold workpieces firmly during filing, assembly or glue-ups. The clamp-on swivel base lets you position the vise on a bench edge without permanent mounting. This tool suits users who need a compact, movable clamping solution.

Clamp-on swivel base install

Installation is straightforward: open the clamp screw, seat the base on a bench up to the maximum throat depth, and tighten the handle until the vise cannot shift. The enclosed mechanism keeps moving parts protected and simplifies cleaning after use. Common issues arise when the bench edge is too thick for the clamp reach or when the mounting surface is uneven, causing the base to rock under load.

2-1/2 inch jaw capacity

The 2-1/2 inch jaw width sets the maximum workpiece size this vise can grip in a single pass. A throat depth of 1 3/4 inches limits how far a piece can extend back from the jaws. Buyers needing to hold wider stock or deeper reaches will need a larger bench vise. The light duty rating means it is not intended for heavy forging or sustained high-force clamping.
