VERTEX 3 Way Angle Milling Vise,VW-3,4,5
The Vertex 3-Way Angle Milling Vise (VW series) is a workholding vise that tilts and rotates in three planes, letting a workpiece be positioned at a compound angle for milling without a separate angle plate or indexing fixture. It is used by machinists for complex angled cuts on milling machines, and is stocked and supplied by SAN Tools across our Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman branches in the UAE.
Key features
- Three-way adjustment — the vise tilts and swivels in three planes, allowing compound angles to be set directly in the vise rather than with separate fixtures.
- Vertex build quality — manufactured by Vertex, an established name in milling workholding and dividing equipment.
- Multiple model sizes — available as VW-3, VW-4 and VW-5 to suit different table sizes and workpiece ranges.
- Milling machine compatible — bolts directly onto a milling machine table or sub-plate.
Applications
- Milling compound-angle features that would otherwise need an angle plate or sine fixture
- Toolroom and prototype work requiring flexible, repeatable angle setups
- General angular milling on manual or CNC mills

How to choose
- Choose the VW-3, VW-4 or VW-5 size based on your milling table dimensions and the largest workpiece you plan to clamp.
- Consider a 3-way angle vise over a standard vise plus angle plate when jobs regularly need compound angles set up quickly and repeatably.
- Confirm jaw opening and swivel range with our team for your specific parts before ordering, as these details vary by model.
Frequently asked questions
What does "3-way" mean on this vise?
It means the vise can be adjusted in three planes — typically tilt, swivel and rotation — so a compound angle can be dialled in directly on the vise instead of stacking separate angle plates or fixtures.
Which model size do I need — VW-3, VW-4 or VW-5?
The right size depends on your milling table and the workpiece dimensions you typically machine; contact our team with your table size and part range and we'll confirm the correct model.
