GRS 004-840 BenchMate Encore QC Stone Setters Package

The GRS BenchMate Encore QC Stone Setters Package (004-840) bundles the Quick Change BenchMate Encore workholding system with two popular stone-setting accessories and a bench pin — offering a complete stone-setting workstation at a lower cost than purchasing the components separately. First launched in 2015, the BenchMate Encore QC replaced the original GRS BenchMate and introduced faster, tool-free fixture changes through a drop-and-lock Quick Change mandrel design.

The 6-inch relieved arm features a cutout that improves access angles and clearance for hands and tools. The arm adjusts to a lower or higher vertical position for comfort and control, and the handrest attaches to either side to accommodate right- or left-handed users. Work is held firmly yet remains easily repositionable across a range of techniques and jobs.

Optional QC fixtures drop and lock into the mandrel with no additional tools required, enabling fast transitions between setups. For jewelers who work under a microscope, GRS also offers the QCX BenchMate (see part numbers 104.831 and 104.832), which keeps work in focus as the tool rotates. The basic QC BenchMate without stone-setting accessories is available as 104.839.

Made in the USA.
