Milwaukee 48-22-8690 – Frequently Asked Questions
1) What size pipe will the Milwaukee 48-22-8690 tripod chain vise hold?
The Milwaukee 48-22-8690 leveling tripod chain vise secures pipe up to 6 inches. The jaws are multi-material, so it isn't limited to black iron, and stainless and PVC-coated pipe jaws are offered separately if you're working material that you don't want marred.
2) Does this Milwaukee chain vise fold down for van storage?
It folds flat for van or job box storage and has a balanced carry handle so it carries briefcase style. Setup is a two-step deployment, which matters if the stand comes in and out of the truck several times a day.
3) How do you keep a tripod pipe vise from wobbling when you're cutting?
On the 48-22-8690, the STABLE LOK system adjusts tension to hold a steady deck over the life of the stand, which is what gives you an accurate cut instead of chatter. It also has removable foot grips so the legs can be anchored down on a slick floor.
4) Does the Milwaukee 48-22-8690 come with a bottom storage shelf?
No. The lower shelf is removable and sold separately, as are the stainless and PVC-coated jaw sets. Order those on the same PO if you want them, because the vise ships as the stand and standard jaws only.
5) Is the Milwaukee 48-22-8690 a chain vise or a yoke vise?
It's a chain vise. The chain wraps the pipe, so it handles a wider range of diameters up to 6 inches and works on shapes a yoke screw doesn't grip well. A yoke vise is the choice if you only ever run round black iron in a narrow size band and want faster screw-down action.
6) What is the Milwaukee part number for the 6 inch leveling tripod chain vise?
Milwaukee 48-22-8690. That's the full leveling tripod chain vise rated to 6 inch pipe, one configuration, no handing or finish options to specify.
