Dapra's GRIPP FORCE 5™ Machine Tool Vise is designed to meet today's workholding demands with their robust and adaptable solution for both general-purpose and 5-axis machining applications. This innovative vise system is engineered to deliver up to 3 tons of clamping force, ensuring that your workpieces are securely held, regardless of the complexity or size of the task at hand.

Unmatched Flexibility and Modularity
The GRIPP FORCE 5 system is built with a modular design that allows it to be configured to suit a wide range of production requirements. Whether you're working on a one-off custom piece or a high-volume production run, the GRIPP FORCE 5 can be tailored to meet your specific needs.

This system includes two primary models: the 68S Short and the 68L Long, offering clamping widths of 0 to 104mm and 0 to 163mm, respectively. Despite their different sizes, both models share the same universal jaw sets, making them interchangeable and reducing the need for multiple tooling setups.

The GRIPP FORCE 5's jaw sets are designed to accommodate a variety of clamping requirements. Available in both wide and narrow configurations, these jaws are universal and fit both the Short (68S) and Long (68L) vise sizes.

• Smooth Jaws - Ideal for holding machined parts, these jaws provide a secure grip without marring the surface of your workpieces.
• Gripp Jaws - Specifically designed for raw material clamping, these jaws ensure that even rough surfaces are securely held in place.
• Floating Center Jaws - Available for the 68L Long vise, these jaws offer additional flexibility, allowing for the clamping of irregularly shaped workpieces.

Each jaw set also features a V notch, making it easy to clamp round workpieces securely.

Accessories to Enhance Functionality
To further extend the capabilities of the GRIPP FORCE 5, Dapra offers floating centering jaws in both smooth and Gripp configurations. These are designed exclusively for the 68L Long vise, providing additional clamping options for complex machining tasks.

The GRIPP FORCE 5™ Machine Tool Vise from Dapra is more than just a clamping tool—it's a comprehensive workholding solution designed to meet the evolving needs of modern machining. Its modularity, robust design, and versatile jaw options make it an essential tool for any machine shop, particularly those focused on 5-axis machining. Whether you're clamping raw material or precision-machined parts, the GRIPP FORCE 5 provides the stability, flexibility, and strength required to get the job done right.
