8" Kurt PT800A Series II Precision Milling ViseModel: PT800A | Series: II (Pull-Type) | Jaw Width: 8"OverviewThe Kurt PT800A Series II is a high-precision, "Pull-Type" milling vise designed for heavy-duty machining where maximum rigidity and minimal jaw lift are critical. Unlike standard "push-type" vises, the pull-type design reduces stationary jaw deflection by pulling the movable jaw toward the operator, significantly improving clamping accuracy and repeatability.As part of the Series II lineup, the PT800A features a precision-ground body on all sides, allowing it to be mounted upright, on either side, or even back-to-back for high-density setups. It is a staple in CNC and manual toolrooms for "hogging out" material while holding "tenths" tolerances.Technical SpecificationsJaw Width: 8.000"Jaw Opening: 8.000" (Standard) | Up to 21" (with outside jaw mounting)Jaw Height: 2.185"Clamping Force: Up to 15,000+ lbsBody Material: 80,000 PSI Ductile Iron (Vibration dampening)Mounting: Precision-ground on sides and bottom (Side mounting capable)Design: AngLock® mechanism (Prevents jaw lift)Weight: Approx. 160 lbsKey FeaturesAngLock® Design: The proprietary Kurt spherical segment in the movable jaw creates downward pressure, virtually eliminating part lift during high-pressure clamping.Pull-Type Clamping: Reduces stationary jaw deflection by roughly 80% compared to traditional designs, ensuring parallel clamping across the entire workpiece.Matched Precision: The body height and keyway are matched to within .001", making it ideal for multi-vise setups where part alignment across two vises is required.Internal Hex Screw: The screw is internally hexed to provide a smaller footprint, preventing interference with machine doors or other workholding components.
