VERTEX VCV-0611 | VCV 10130 | Self Centering Vise
The Vertex VCV self-centering vise is a workholding vise for milling machines that grips a workpiece from both sides simultaneously, centring it automatically on the machine table without manual alignment. It is used by machinists and toolmakers for milling operations that need the part centred precisely on the spindle axis, and is stocked and supplied by SAN Tools across our Dubai, Sharjah and Ajman branches in the UAE.
Key features
- Self-centering jaws — both jaws move together so the workpiece is automatically centred on the vise's centreline, removing the need to manually indicate the part.
- Vertex build quality — manufactured by Vertex, a long-established name in milling workholding and dividing equipment.
- Two model sizes — available as VCV 0611 and VCV 10130 to suit different table sizes and workpiece ranges.
- Milling machine compatible — designed to bolt directly onto a milling machine table or sub-plate.
Applications
- Milling operations where the workpiece must be centred accurately on the spindle axis
- Repeat-production milling where fast, repeatable centring saves setup time
- Toolroom and general workshop milling on manual or CNC mills

How to choose
- Choose the model size that matches your milling table dimensions and the largest workpiece you expect to clamp.
- Check the jaw opening is sufficient for your typical part range before ordering, and confirm with our team if you need exact opening and jaw dimensions for your job.
- Self-centering vises suit repeat-setup work best; for one-off odd-shaped parts, a standard or angle vise may be more flexible.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between the VCV 0611 and VCV 10130?
Both are self-centering milling vises from the same Vertex range; they differ in size to suit different table and workpiece dimensions. Contact our team to confirm which size fits your machine and parts.
Does a self-centering vise need indicating like a standard vise?
No — because both jaws move together, the workpiece is centred on the vise's own centreline automatically, which is the main advantage over a standard fixed-jaw vise.
