Vise

A vise or vice (British English) is a mechanical apparatus used to secure an object to allow work to be performed on it. Vises have two parallel jaws, one fixed and the other movable, threaded in and out by a screw and lever.

For behavior considered immoral, see Vice. For other uses, see Vice (disambiguation) and Vise (disambiguation).

A vise grip is not a vise but a pair of lever-actuated locking pliers.
