The vises of the StandardFLEX series are an evolution of the Standard vise series.
Their main characteristic is the quickest jaw plate hand substitution without any tool.
This is possible thanks to the new design with pin with spring which increases the standard vise versatility while the prismatic grooves allow a perfect repositioning accuracy (within microns!!!).
NO WEAR
Thanks to the manufacturing with only the most suitable materials and to the structure of the vise components.
High alloyed quality resistance steel, case hardened HRC 60 ±2, is used in manufacturing all the Gerardi vises and accessories in order to give maximum rigidity, high performances and no wear.
MODULARITY
All vises and accessories are modular and components of all our vises will interchange with perfect alignment to provide different workholding solutions.
With this basic principle the only difference between fixtures with the same width of clamping is the base (whose length determines the maximum opening of the vise), while the rest of components have same dimensions. Through the simple addition or substitution of some components You can change the type of clamping as Your needs require using the same fixture purchased before (single clamping, swivel base, double, vertical, smooth or round or flat or rough workpieces, manual, hydraulic or pneumatic).
QUICK CLAMPING
Thanks to the clamping device sliding in the vise base slide (compact rack type) till the proximity of the workpiece. The clamping is completed with the main screw. Besides the manual mechanic system, 4 further interchangeable and independent clamping systems are available:
Hydraulic
Pneumatic
Manual hydraulic
