Abstract

The invention relates to a machine tool vice having a vice body and a slide guided in the vice body, with a clamping mechanism working between the vice body and the slide, in which there are two jaws, which are connected with the vice body and the slide respectively and of which the fixed jaw is designed in a bridge-like design and secured such that it can be detached. The clamping mechanism is arranged beneath the clamping zone formed by the jaws, and the slide is arranged in a longitudinal recess, open at the top, and extending generally over the entire length of the vice body. The vice body or the slide is provided with several means of retention which can be used selectively for the jaws. Alternatively several interchangeable jaws be used selectively, and all jaws are mounted on the vice body and the slide such that they can be detached.
