Frictionworks was founded because of our personal challenges finding quality rubber and polymer products as well as a desire to produce with a focus on exceptional quality and functionality. Our speedmill manufacturing processes allow us to provide unique high-quality designs in an extremely agile and responsive small business environment. We want to be part of a revolution to bring manufacturing back to America and continue to show that “Made in the USA” means the best.
Most polymer and nylon vise jaws have a shore hardness around 80. The flat surface is slick and work products may slip. TPU versions are too soft for most applications.
Many vise jaws / vise pads on the market do not have a 90 degree angle affecting fit.
Existing jaws on the market have underpowered magnets and too few of them to create a proper hold that won’t move.
Poor magnet placement affects fit of curved top vises. Magnets are only glued and can pop out of poor fitting elliptical holes.
Nylon vise jaws all look like they are coming out of the same foreign factory. Same tiny magnets. Same construction. Same frustrations across reviews. No written guarantee.
Frictionworks Bench Vise Jaws use our incredibly tough reinforced non-marring polyurethane. Our SH60 jaws are grippier than nylon and our SH80 is the premier high hardness polymer.
RAD Jaws are manufactured with an accurate and true 90-degree angle ensuring a solid and secure fit.
RAD Jaws have bigger magnets, and our magnets are 1/2″ high-powered with approximately double the force! Compare to anyone else.
Our magnets are flush to optimize a no wobble fit and are screwed into our proprietary retention system and over-molded to keep them where they belong…in the jaws
Rad Vise Jaws are purpose built to a higher standard. Superior design and materials with a limited lifetime warranty guaranteed in writing. Made to last and outperform. Right here. In the USA.
