GRS 003-530 Standard Engraving Block Without Attachment Set

A solid steel block that turns smoothly and stays put is the foundation for hand engraving and stone setting. The Glendo GRS Standard Engraver's Block (model 003-530) is a solid steel workholding vise built in the USA for engraving, stone setting, and precision bench work. Its non-glare satin chrome and black jaws reduce reflections to minimize eye strain during extended sessions, and an adjustable rotational drag lets you fine-tune the feel to match your technique.

At 19 lb (8.6 kg), roughly 25% heavier than comparable blocks, it delivers stable, low vibration control for delicate cuts and secure workholding. The block turns on a 5.12" (130 mm) ball, carries 2.5" (64 mm) jaws that open to 3" (76 mm), and stands 6" (152 mm) high on its base.
