Bigger Stock. Tighter Hold. Built Like a Bullet.
The Wilton 6″ Apprentice Heavy-Duty Vise is engineered for projects that demand more than the basics. Delivering a massive 9,900 lbs. of clamping force, this vise is built to handle oversized tasks with zero hesitation. Constructed from 72,000 PSI ductile iron—offering 2X the durability of standard vises—it features Wilton’s iconic bullet-style design that protects internal components from dust and debris.
With an expanded 6.5” jaw opening and a deep 4.375” throat depth, the WVA6HD provides the extra reach needed for taller or bulkier workpieces. The precision-machined slide rail ensures a smooth, no-slip grip, while the 360° swivel base with dual lockdowns offers rock-solid stability at any angle. Whether you are striking metal on the large anvil surface or securing heavy pipe in the integrated jaws, this vise is a workshop essential backed by Wilton’s Lifetime Warranty.
