The Palmgren 9612601 6" Low Profile Drill Press Vise is the compact, battlefield-tested workholding solution your drill press workflows have been missing. Built for precision and designed to stay out of the way, this vise keeps clearance where you need it most while delivering dependable clamping for repeatable results.
Low profile, high performance. In tight clearance applications where every millimeter of travel matters, the 6" jaw width and remarkably short overall height let you drill, tap, or ream without the vise colliding with the spindle, chuck, or work surface. This means cleaner holes, better alignment, and fewer setup errors—every time.
- 6-inch jaw width provides secure handling for mid-size parts without crowding neighboring features.
- Low-profile design minimizes interference with drill travel, giving you greater access to tight workpieces.
- Rugged, dependable clamping surfaces that hold position through repeated drilling operations for consistent squareness and accuracy.
- Machined for precision with tight tolerances to ensure true alignment between the vise and your drill press axis.
- durable construction built to withstand the daily rigors of a shop floor, maintaining performance over time.
Ideal use cases
Whether you’re assembling small brackets, drilling through aluminum spacers, or creating electronics enclosures, this low profile drill press vise shines wherever vertical space is at a premium. It’s equally at home in hobbyist shops, machine shops, and production environments where repeatability and quick setups matter.
Who benefits most
- machinists and fabricators working in crowded benchtops or under high-clearance drill presses
- hobbyists needing reliable, repeatable clamping without complex setup
- shops that drill small-to-mid-sized parts where traditional tall vises get in the way
Tips for use and care
- Mount the vise securely to the drill press table using appropriate clamps or slots. Ensure it is square to the spindle axis before starting.
- Open the jaws just wide enough to insert the workpiece, then carefully close and verify alignment with the drill axis.
- Lubricate moving parts as needed and keep the jaw faces clean from chips to maintain true seating and repeatability.
- After use, wipe down the vise to remove cutting fluids or coolants that may affect performance over time.
The Palmgren 9612601 6" Low Profile Drill Press Vise delivers a practical, purpose-built solution for precision work in tight spaces. Its combination of compact height, substantial jaw width, and dependable clamping makes it a standout choice for anyone who refuses to compromise on accuracy or workflow efficiency.
