 Lisle 48100 5" Vise Jaw Pads Feb 09, 2011
By nallabor
Good/effective product for the price. For the hobbyist - not the professional.
Useful for protecting workpiece, but I don't recommend for extreme tightening/clamping. These are simple pads with cheap components and rough machining. Rubber & magnets are glued/epoxied on.
As other reviews have noted, the pads may occasionally come off the vise jaws due to weak magnets:
1) If the vise is closed tightly, the rubber pads can create a partial vacuum - either with one another or with a flat workpiece in between. The pads stick and one comes off of its side when the vise is opened.
2) It is fairly easy to knock the pads off while moving around a cumbersome workpiece, but not with your hands/fingers.
The pads could easily be modified to stay in place (w/ dowel pins or similar).
H x L x W
Overall 1.250" x 4" x 0.970" - Smaller than expected, yet sufficient.
Rubber 1.175" x 4" x 0.125" - Sufficiently thick, but supportive aluminum lips protrude 0.050" underneath and could mar object if vise is tightened heavily.
Jaw tab 0.150" x 4" x 0.580" - (w/out magnet) Seems thick enough for aluminum to not crack under a hammer blow.
Magnets 0.070" x 4" x 0.490" - Not surprising they are on the weak side.

 Works, but could be better Dec 28, 2010
By Consumer
"PR"
I wanted some rubber jaws for a new $25 vise I picked up at Home Depot. These seemed to fit the bill. They work, but a few improvements would make these things perfect. First, they need stronger magnets, like the really strong ones you see in other products. These magnets work, but they are weak. If I close the vise down, the pads stick together a little and one of them pops off when I open it. In my opinion, really strong magnets would hold these things on the vise perfectly.
Other than that, they seem to do what I was looking for, so overall, not a bad purchase, but could be made to be really great.

Well made Aug 03, 2010
By Wayne H Morris
These pads appear to be well made and work as advertised however the magnets should be stronger because the pads are easily knocked out of position when aligning an item in in the vise.

There ok I guess Jun 27, 2011
By Marine01
The magnets are not strong enough to hold them to my vice, if they are bumped they will fall off. Do not close them on themselves, the rubber pads like to stick together and are hard to seperate.
If you can get them to stay in place, they do hold your project firmly, and will not dammage surface or finish.
The are alot shorter that I expected, they do not fit the entire jaw length of my vice.
Functional Vice Pads Mar 04, 2012
By D Anderton
The pads are fairly heavy duty with a polymer cushion bonded to the 'business side' of the pad. The pads serve their function effectively.
The pads include some magnets to help hold the pads in place. They are pretty wimpy magnets. On the one hand, the magnets won't glue down the pads on the vice jaws (they can be knocked loose with minimal effort)--but on the other hand the magnets aren't likely to ruin your watch or erase the magnetic strip on your credit cards (assuming you keep your cards tucked away in your wallet). :)
