Palmgren Steel Products Inc. says its self-centering, low-profile machine vise is ideal to use with drilling and milling machines whenever quick, accurate centering of the workpiece below the spindle is required.
Constructed of close grained, high tensile strength, fine cast iron castings, the vise features moveable jaws that are mounted on precision ground and hardened guide rails. Each vise comes with three sets of 4-inch jaws and one pair of steel hardened, one pair of steel soft and one pair of steel step jaws.

- centering
centering
1. Process of locating the center of a workpiece to be mounted on centers. 2. Process of mounting the workpiece concentric to the machine spindle. See centers.
- gang cutting ( milling)
gang cutting ( milling)
Machining with several cutters mounted on a single arbor, generally for simultaneous cutting.
- milling
milling
Machining operation in which metal or other material is removed by applying power to a rotating cutter. In vertical milling, the cutting tool is mounted vertically on the spindle. In horizontal milling, the cutting tool is mounted horizontally, either directly on the spindle or on an arbor. Horizontal milling is further broken down into conventional milling, where the cutter rotates opposite the direction of feed, or “up” into the workpiece; and climb milling, where the cutter rotates in the direction of feed, or “down” into the workpiece. Milling operations include plane or surface milling, endmilling, facemilling, angle milling, form milling and profiling.
- tensile strength
tensile strength
In tensile testing, the ratio of maximum load to original cross-sectional area. Also called ultimate strength. Compare with yield strength.
