The Stickvise holds your PCB flat at table level, giving your hands a stable surface to rest on while soldering — a significant advantage over elevated, tilted vises when working on fine pitch components. The low-profile design also fits easily under a microscope, keeping the board consistently in focus.
Built with machined, bead-blasted, and anodized aluminium jaws and insulating Nylon 6/6 jaw plates. All hardware is metric standard sizing.
Key Features
- Flat, Table-Level Hold – Hands rest directly on the table for maximum stability during fine soldering
- Microscope Compatible – Low profile keeps PCB in the focal plane under a microscope
- Aluminium Jaws – Machined, bead-blasted, and anodized for durability
- Insulating Jaw Plates – Nylon 6/6 construction; won't damage PCB pads or tracks
- Metric Hardware – All fasteners and components are metric standard
Ideal For
- SMD soldering and fine-pitch rework
- PCB assembly and inspection under a microscope
- Any bench soldering work requiring a steady, low-profile board hold
Jargon buster
Plain-language definitions for the technical terms used above.
- PCB
- A printed circuit board (PCB) is a board, usually rigid, with etched copper tracks that connect electronic components together without loose wiring. Components are mounted on the board and signals route between them through the copper layout.
- SMD
- SMD means surface-mount device, a component style designed to be soldered directly onto the surface of a circuit board rather than through holes. SMD parts are compact and mounted flat on the board, which suits smaller and mass-produced designs.
