Clipless Soft Jaws for 100mm Vise (No Magnets Required)

When you need to assemble, disassemble, or work on delicate parts, you require a strong, stable attachment that won't leave nasty marks or scratches on your components. These 100mm (standard size) vise soft jaws feature a smart mechanical design: they don't need magnets. They simply snap/fit together around your vise jaws and stay firmly in place without coming apart during use.

The project includes two slicing approaches depending on your preferences:

1. Standard Version: Perfect if you prefer to customize your own walls and infill in the slicer.

2. Pre-Modeled Solid Version: Features built-in hard plastic infill within the 3D geometry—ideal if you want to print it with default slicer settings and still get a heavy-duty part.

🛠 Key Features

• Magnet-Free Design: Fits snugly over standard 100mm jaws and locks mechanically.

• Non-Marring Protection: Safely clamps threaded rods, soft metals, plastics, or 3D prints without leaving teeth marks.

• Heavy-Duty & Replaceable: Engineered to withstand heavy workshop use, yet fast and cheap to reprint when worn out.

📐 Print Settings

These parts are designed to absorb clamping pressure, so proper wall count is key.

• Supports: No supports needed!

• Material: Any material works and will last for many work days! Simple PLA works surprisingly well for general use, though tougher materials like PETG, ABS, or ASA will naturally provide superior durability and chemical resistance.

• Perimeters (Walls): 3 to 4 walls minimum (This is crucial to give the clamping faces enough structural integrity).

• Infill: High infill (30% - 50% Gyroid/Grid) if using the standard version.
