Work IQ Tools, a new brand of tools for the workbench, has launched a debut product line called IQ. The collection includes the IQ Vise System with a maneuverable multi-axis bench-mount IQ Vise, a collection of task-specific IQ Vise Jaws, and IQ Connect plug-and-play accessories and mounts.
2024 NED Innovation Award Winner
The IQ Vise by itself, with its ability to articulate and rotate, offers new ways to accomplish countless jobs. Coupling the vise with task-specific IQ Vise Jaws and IQ Connect accessories creates a problem-solving workshop helper, offering people unprecedented ways to work smarter.
The IQ Vise features a ball and socket design that allows articulation and 360-deg. rotation at any angle. It also includes a Quick Cam compression lever in the front that allows it to lay flat, lock at any angle, or rotate for optimal work positioning. The 8-position IQ Lok locks the ball in place and allows up to 130 ft-lb of torque.
Additionally, 5 different task-specific IQ Vise Jaws allow users to tailor the vise's grip for different projects. Double-sided, textured jaws specifically engineered to secure materials such as wood, pipe, and fine and delicate items expand the capability of the traditional workbench vise.
The IQ Connect plug & play accessories and mounts include 3 hands-free accessories that can connect to the IQ Vise via the IQ Connect Clip and flexible, extended arms: a work light, a cellphone holder, and a 5-in. magnifying glass. It also includes 3 bench mounts to conveniently place and hold the accessories around a workbench or shop. A magnetic mount and clamp mount are also available, extending the number of possible mounting locations.
