Description

The RIDGID 40220 461 Straight Pipe Welding Vise is a workhorse for professional welders and pipe fitters. It clamps straight pipe from 1/2-inch to 8-inch diameter with a secure, chain-driven grip that stays put during tacking and welding. Built with durable materials and machined components, this pipe welding clamp is designed to resist strain, heat, and warping – so your joints stay true.

RIDGID 461 Pipe Welding Vise: Secure Clamping from 1/2 to 8 Inches

Whether you're fabricating handrails, structural steel, or plumbing lines, the RIDGID 461 gives you a rock-solid hold on round pipe. The chain wraps around the pipe and tightens smoothly via special chain screws, while the swivel nuts allow easy positioning without binding.

Built to Stand Up to Hard Shop Use

The vise body is made from performance-proven cast iron and steel. It resists heat and deformation during tacking, so you won't constantly re-align your work. The machined swivel pins and nuts are engineered for smooth operation and long life.

Compatible With Your Workflow

This straight pipe vise is one of a family from RIDGID that includes angle, elbow, and flange styles. If your project often spins pipe at an angle, consider the matching angle vise – but for straight sections, the 461 is a dependable choice.

Replacement Parts and Chain

Even the toughest vises sometimes need a new chain. The RIDGID 40220 uses a readily available replacement chain, and the swivel parts can be serviced if needed. That means you can keep this vise in service for decades.

Product Details

Straight vs Angle Pipe Vise: Which Should You Pick?

For most straight sections of pipe, a straight vise is the right call. If you need to weld fittings or support pipe at an angle, an angle vise or elbow style might be better. The RIDGID 461 covers the common straight-pipe need with a secure grip and a small footprint.

Getting the Most from Your Vise

Use the swivel pins to align the chain correctly, and don't over-tighten on thin-wall pipe. With regular chain maintenance, this vise can hold up for years.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the chain replaceable on the RIDGID 40220?

Yes, the chain is a serviceable part. Look for RIDGID replacement chains that fit the 461 pattern.

Can this vise be mounted to a bench?

No, this is a pipe clamp-style vise, not a bench mount. It wraps around the pipe and locks in place.

Does it work with aluminum pipe?

Yes, but avoid excessive heat; the clamp grip is fine.

What sizes does this vise handle?

From 1/2-inch to 8-inch nominal pipe diameter.

Can I use it for threading or only welding?

It's designed for welding and tacking; not intended for rotating or threading operations.

Holds up well

Bought this for my shop. Clamps 1/2 to 8 inch pipe securely, and it holds up well under heat. I've used it for months and it hasn't warped.

Forty years of vises, this is the best

This is the finest pipe vise I've owned in forty years. The castings are heavy and true, and the jaw alignment is perfect. It resists heat beautifully; I've tack welded on it daily. The screw threads are smooth and the base mounts solid. It's a lifetime tool. RIDGID got this one right.

Heavy duty

Used it to weld a couple of gate hinges. Heavy duty and doesn't move. Great price.

Solid tool

It's a solid tool. I've used the smaller one and this is just as good. Only wish the base had more holes for mounting, but that's minor.

Excellent quality

I bought this to replace a 30-year-old vise. The quality is excellent, and it grips pipe without crushing it. Definitely recommend.

Had to return it because it didn't fit my bench, but it seemed well made.
