Zubr Mini Master (32485) 60mm

I took it for the house. The fit of the parts is normal. The lips come together. The backlash is small. Made from gray cast iron. The screw is slightly heated. Screw 12mm, trapezoid thread. Dovetail is an interesting solution, the movable jaw has minimal backlash, but the screw is open. The planes are trimmed. I didn't knock on the anvil.

No.

Of the modifications - I made a plastic nut on the screw for dumping chips and put a thrust washer. I washed the vice, smeared everything with grease. Pay particular attention to the swivel mechanism, lubricate the eccentric and the table.

We liked it very much. Convenient to use. Made with high quality, good casting. They inspire confidence. Embossed jaws grip firmly. It's better not to find for such a price.

When buying, the sponges were slightly warped, corrected by adjusting the sponges themselves.
After a few months of use, the pivot clamp stopped holding. Now they are spinning constantly.

I was very pleased with the purchase. But over time, my joy changed to discontent. The vice began to spin as you like, but the clamp does not work anymore, it may be possible to repair it, but I have not disassembled them yet. Otherwise a very good grip. Everything is done well, casting is of high quality.

A vise from a trusted, reliable manufacturer. Made neatly, the lips fit well, there is no gap, at least pinch the foil. There is an eccentric for turning the vice.

The vice, as they say, is well cut, tightly sewn. But it is not necessary from them to demand outstanding results in clamping inch pipes and twist rusty squeegees with a large gas wrench. They are intended for home use of small and medium-sized locksmiths. And for these purposes, they are super. Who wrote that from time to time the eccentric does not hold and the vice turns. At the bottom there is a nut on 13 which you can adjust the tightening of the eccentric.
