The BESSEY 6 in. heavy-duty bench vise is made from high quality 30,000 PSI cast iron for many years of service. The convenient swivel base of the 6 in. bench vise offers easy, versatile use. Comes standard with an incorporated anvil and 2 lockdowns.
I’ve had it for a couple years now in my garage shop and it’s been great so far. No issues. It swivels making it convenient to use.

Easy to mount and spins in any desired direction.
This vise is almost identical to my four-inch Wilton vise in size and shape , but for twice the price. This was a convenient purchase, but I paid way too much.

very poor quality.
I purchased this tool mainly to do u joints on my cars. They are british sports cars so they have small u joints. I installed 4 joints and did an ok job until the the 5th ujoint when I heard a cracking noise. Well, so happens the cracking was the tool’s front jaw braking in two pieces. It should be illegal, if it isn’t already to waste people’s time selling such a low quality item. it is chinese of course. Also, i used my hands, not a cheater bar. A good American made vise will cost you hundreds of dollars but it will last.

I had this vise for a few years, but only put it to light use. Today I was trying to break loose a stuck nut and the jaw broke in two. I am terribly disappointed that this broke so easily and wound not recommend this to anyone else.

Disappointing. The value-engineers got a hold of this one.
Bought one of these over a year ago and thought it was good for the price. Ended up breaking, which admittedly was due to my misuse. Liked it enough that I bought another last week, and found it to be smaller in nearly every way. Shorter, lighter, handle is smaller, threaded rod is smaller. Everything is about 3/4 scale of my original. Not happy to see them downsize what I thought would be the same vise.

very nice vise
Heavy duty, works great. There are three mounting holes - they are designed for 1/2” bolts - they are a little rough on the inside from the forging process so you might have to “clean” the holes up a little with your 1/2” drill bit. Very secure when “locked down” after I mounted it on my work bench. Although not designed to hold pipes, I used it to hold a segment of 3” aluminum pipe while I drilled holes in the pipe; it worked fine for that.
