The most versatile vice in the world
Essential to every modern engineering shop

The Swindens Revolving Head Vice was invented during the First World War when it was a matter of life and death to have the best and most versatile vice around.

It has been used by the British Armed Forces ever since – and, today that also includes their NATO allies. The military know that our products are not only versatile, but also durable – they really are built to last.

Product development and improvement has kept Swindens Revolving Head Vices up-to-date. New versions of the original vice include non-spark and non-magnetic vices for use in hazardous conditions.

Today, we are prouder than ever that we manufacture a unique, innovative and practical solution to the many problems that modern engineers face.

We understand that many of them still carry out in-house manufacturing, using simple techniques. And, almost without exception, such engineers acknowledge the importance of having good equipment to produce quality components quickly and cost effectively.

They know that a Swindens vice secures heavy and unusually shaped work pieces where other vices would fail. But that’s not all; it also:

•  Improves safety

• Reduces product damage

• Reduces production timelines

• Reduces excessive handling

• Allows for correct posture

• And it is adaptable to all situations

That’s why we often refer to it as a work holder – and not just a vice. You’ll find many more benefits as soon as you use one – and you’ll end up joining our existing customers in calling it the best vice bar none.

There is a reason for this. At Swindens we are specialists. We concentrate solely on the Revolving Head Vice. We are not a company involved in other markets. We are simply experts in vice manufacture.

One review of Swindens Revolving Head Vice stated, "The fact that it’s more useful than any vice has the right to be placed on every bench."
