Little Giant No. 5494 Cast Iron Bench Vise — 3" Jaws, Swivel Base
Cast in the USA and marked "LITTLE GIANT 5494" on the body, this compact bench vise delivers a versatile feature set in a solid 14-pound package: 3-inch knurled jaws opening to 5 inches of capacity, integrated pipe grips at the base of the fixed jaw, a small anvil horn extension, and a swivel base for multi-angle positioning. The ball-end tommy bar handle and exposed lead screw are intact. These utility vises were workhorses in small shops, farm operations, and trade benches through the mid-20th century — capable of handling woodworking, metalworking, and pipe work from a single mount.
At 14 lbs with a bolt-down swivel base, the 5494 is compact enough to relocate between benches yet solid enough for dependable light-duty clamping and pipe gripping. The screw mechanism turns freely and the swivel base locks to hold position.
CONDITION
Good. Visible signs of use throughout with surface oxidation and dark patina consistent with shop service; no remarkable damage. Fully operational — screw and swivel both function as intended.
