I'll have to check this evening...

Any thoughts?

No other markings. Nothing on the inside or bottom. The allen wrench I used to pulled the collar on the main screw was SAE not metric. The jaws are just over 6" The base is 8 1/2" diameter The jaw depth is 4 1/2 Not sure what it opens to. More pics with tape measure. It may indeed be an...

It is 6" jaws. Slightly over. I pulled the swivel base and took a piece of Scotch Brite every surface looking for any other marks at all. Nothing. I'll check again and give some measurements.

That's what I'm thinking too...

Okay. I photo-ed the nut exactly like you photo-ed yours. The dimensions are not exact. On a couple of yours the tape measure wasn't exactly on or you were measuring it differently for some reason. Here they are: I'm hoping that the foot of the nut and the thread pitch is...

Are you sweating out of anticipation? Thanks for the pics. And the heavy lifting. That's the part# he's sending me. I'll put up some more pics this afternoon. Against a tape measure mine is slightly different...

I think it looks identical to the Morgan! Comparing the lines and contour of each leads me to believe that they may have made it for another company long ago and put the name JET on it... Ty from Milwaukee Tool is going to send me a vise nut for their 6 inch vise free of charge on the condition...

Thanks for your help so far. This site already proved to be a great resource! I just sent them an email with the same pics. Hopefully they're the manufacturer and still have those nuts available...

I have this vise made by JET. Other than the name JET on the side, there is no other information on the vise itself. The spindle nut is broken. I'm looking to replace it but don't know where to start. My web search on "JET vises" leads me to the JET / Wilton website. But they no longer make...

Added pictures. I unmounted the vise and looked all over for model number or "made in" marks. Nothing but the JET name on this Again, looking to replace the spindle nut / vise nut....

I will take pics and post tonight when I get home...

Gentlemen, I just broke my JET machinist bench vise. I assume that this JET vise is made by Wilton but I have no hard confirmation of that. Neither do I know if this is a american made vise. I suspect it is since it seems to be an older vise. I appears that I put too much stress on it. The...
