Q:It says it is ductile iron but some people say in the Q &A say it is forged steel. Am hoping the manufacturer can clarify this. Thanks

Answer This Question

A:  Here is a link to the manufacturer's website that will clarify the construction. https://yostvises.com/products/adi-5-5-austempered-ductile-iron-adi-bench-vise

by|Sep 18, 2022

    A:  Yost replaced their forged FSV line with this cast ductile ADI line. At both this website and other large online retailers they just re-used the old FSV listing and updated the title and description with the new ADI vise specifics.

          Answer This Question

          A:  This product was manufactured in Taiwan.

          by|Nov 14, 2018

            A:  FSV-6 (Forged Steel Vise) is made in Taiwan while supplies last. The next version will be renamed as ADI-6 and is made in China. ADI-6 is a vast improvement over the FSV-6 vise as FSV series needed to be welded together whereas the ADI series is a continuous casting, thus much stronger. Austempered Ductile Iron (ADI) is equal to if not stronger than forged steel and meets ASTM A897, Grade 900, 90,000 psi tensile strength. Orders placed for ADI-6 on Home Depot as of 11/13/2018 will receive ADI-6 vise. The specifications (Jaw Width, Jaw Opening, Throat Depth and Pipe Capacity) all remain the same. The only changes are: COO = China, material of construction and improved clamping force.

                Good solid Vise
                This is a good solid vise. It looked even better mounted on my 46” Husky tool chest.

                  This Vise is high quality, from looks to build & strength....it's forged steel, which is MUCH stronger than any cast vises!!!.....swivels 360°.....has lock downs on both sides, removable pipe jaws....on mine, the vise jaws held the corner of A SINGLE PIECE OF PAPER, all the way across, even with just lightly closing them!!....& the lifetime warranty speaks volumes!!!.....Go online & Google this same model but in the Yost 6" version....there's a video of a welder that mounts it on the back of his work truck.....WOW!!!....it's pretty amazing!!!.....Hope this helps.....Thanks & God bless.

                  What a great vise! I went with the forged steel vise because of the strength. Cast iron vises just don't have the tensile strength to withstand high clamp pressures. They break. This vise is steel and is welded and machined to precision. And with Yost's lifetime warranty, i don't have to worry about a thing. I had a small issue with my vise and instead of returning it to HD i emailed Yost directly, and within a day was speaking with a member of their team. Yost is a family owned AMERICAN company that stands behind their products. They made sure i was satisfied and went above and beyond to make sure i had what i needed. If you are like me and want to spend a little extra of my hard earned dollars to get a quality tool, go with the Yost line of vises, you wont be disappointed. Thank you Yost for supplying me with hands down the best customer service i may very well have EVER received. You have a customer for life.

                    The tightening and loosening is smooth but the rotation of the vise is terrible. I’d spend more money on a better unit next time

                        Bought it primarily as a torture device. Mounted securely to a bench should help keep whosever in it from move too far.

                        Arrived with one of the locking handles cross-threaded. Contacted Yost and the send a replacement without question. Use this vise contantly for 5 months and it has maintained square jaws and required minimum adjustment.
