The Record Chain Pipe Vice is a professional pipe-holding tool designed for secure workpiece positioning during cutting, threading and joining operations. Built by IRWIN Record, this chain vice utilises a proven three-point gripping system that ensures pipes remain completely immoveable during work. The vice features two sets of drop-forged, heat-treated replaceable steel jaws that form a V-shaped cradle to support the pipe.
A high tensile steel chain loops over the workpiece and locks into a slot between the jaws, where it's tensioned using a handle and screw mechanism to create a rigid hold. This design distributes clamping force evenly across the pipe surface, preventing damage whilst maintaining exceptional grip strength. Ideal for plumbers and pipefitters working with a range of pipe diameters, this vice offers versatility across multiple applications.
The replaceable jaw design ensures long-term value, whilst the body castings carry a guarantee against breakage for added peace of mind. Suitable for both workshop and site use, the chain configuration accommodates pipes from 6mm up to 100mm diameter.
