Mitee-Bite Tall Vise Jaw System

VISE APPLICATION:

• Mount jaws to either 4 or 6 inch vise with MITEEBITE.COM facing
  outboard keeping mounting bolts loose.
• Determine which grippers will be used, install and tighten grippers
  hand tight. If VersaGrips™ are being used to grip round stock, place in outboard bores. Do not tighten screws at this point. Tighten vise lightly onto workpiece allowing jaws to center themselves, adjust VersaGrips™ and tighten gripper screws and mounting bolts for both jaws.
• Loosen vise jaw for load/unload clearance of workpiece. Install support/drive/pivot bolt.
• Setup is complete. Tighten drive bolt allowing grippers to penetrate .010-.060″ on material < 40Rc.
• For additional holding force, loosen vise handle which will eliminate any jaw lift that may have occurred and depending on amount of torque can increase pressure to over 9,000 lbs.

T-SLOT & GRID TABLE APPLICATION:

• Using vertical counter bores on outboard edges of jaws, install mounting bolts into t-nuts or grid plate and adjust accordingly. Do not tighten at this time.
• Select appropriate length support/drive/pivot bolts, thread lower bolt into jaw prior to sliding opposite jaw into place. Insert upper bolt and adjust as necessary for work-piece.
• Place workpiece between jaws and lightly tighten upper bolt & loosen lower bolt until all grippers contact workpiece.
• Loosen upper support bolt until adequate workpiece clearance for part removal is obtained.
• Tighten vertical mounting bolts.
• Upper support bolt is now the “drive bolt” for securing and releasing workpiece.
• To increase holding force loosen lower bolt creating pivot point on upper bolt for aggressive machining.
• Any size t-nuts can be utilized. We provide 16mm t-nuts (most popular size) which also fits 5/8 t-slots.

GRIPPER CONFIGURATIONS:

• Round stock: use 4 VersaGrips™, two in each outboard bore. Adjust so all “points” make contact simultaneously. If small diameter workpiece, two parts may be held at one time.
• Maximum of 8 TalonGrips™ can be used, 4 in each jaw for maximum line contact.
• If down force is necessary or additional holding force use 2 Pitbull® clamps. One in the center of each jaw and one TalonGrip™on each side of Pitbull® clamps. Tighten jaws into grippers then tighten each Pitbull® clamp.
