When shop space is at a premium, but performance can’t be compromised, the newest 10″ Vertical Wood & Metal Band Saw from Palmgren® delivers a smart, space efficient solution built for serious results. Designed for precision cutting across wood, metal, plastics, and composites, this saw hits the sweet spot between compact footprint and professional capability.

In automotive fabrication, every cut, clamp, and connection matters. Palmgren’s workholding, machining, and finishing tools give fabricators the precision and reliability required to build custom components, performance parts, and race-ready assemblies with confidence.

At Palmgren we believe deeply in service, not just because we’re a sponsor of Warriors Way, but because we believe in the value of standing behind those who have stood for us. That’s why we’re proud to support Warriors Way, a nonprofit whose mission is critical: every veteran they serve gets 100% free access to programs that help them heal, thrive, and reintegrate. No cost. No barriers. Just help when it’s needed most.

When most people shop for a machine vise, they focus on jaw width, opening size, or clamping power. But there’s another factor that plays a huge role in performance and long-term durability: the material the vise is made from.

Keep your vise working as hard as you do.

A bench vise is the unsung hero of the workshop. It holds, secures, and absorbs the stress of every cut, weld, bend, and grind. But even the toughest vise will eventually show wear if it’s not properly cared for. Regular maintenance not only extends the life of your vise but also ensures safety, precision, and efficiency on the job.

This guide walks you through everything you need to know about keeping your vise in top condition.

If you’ve ever had a part slip mid-cut, you know the sound. It’s not just irritating, it’s a gut punch. Hours of work gone, a tool nicked, or worse, a hand too close for comfort. Ask anyone who’s spent real time at the bench: if your work isn’t locked down, the rest doesn’t matter.

That’s why Palmgren didn’t just tweak a design, we tore the old one apart and rebuilt it from the inside out. The result is our patented Straight-Line-Pull Combination Bench & Pipe Vise. It doesn’t just look different. It is different. Stronger. Safer. Guaranteed for life.

When it comes to industrial machinery and precision tools, every detail matters. The professionals who rely on these tools demand accuracy, durability, and consistency and that’s exactly what Palmgren has been delivering for over a century. But what truly sets Palmgren apart isn’t just the machines; it’s the philosophy behind them.

Blade Show Atlanta 2025 was nothing short of incredible, and Palmgren was proud to be part of the world’s largest knife event. From the roar of grinders to the shine of freshly honed steel, this year’s show was a celebration of craftsmanship—and Palmgren was right at the heart of it.

In the realm of metalworking, precision and reliability are paramount. Palmgren's milling machines are engineered to deliver both, catering to a diverse range of applications from intricate prototyping to heavy-duty production. With a legacy rooted in quality craftsmanship, Palmgren continues to provide solutions that meet the evolving needs of machinists and fabricators.

In the world of precision, where micrometers matter and consistency is everything, the unsung heroes are often those holding the work in place, the vises. Whether it’s for a machinist creating aerospace parts to a hobbyist working on a restoration project, the vise is the foundational tool that ensures safety, accuracy, and efficiency. At Palmgren®, we've understood this since 1919; and we’ve built more than just tools. We've built a legacy!
