Start with your bench and the way the workpiece will be restrained. A holdfast, dog fence, face vise and file clamp need different mounting or support arrangements. Jaw opening is only one of the measurements that determines the fit.

The Narex forged holdfast and POWERTEC instant-clamping format require their own bench-fit checks. Sjöbergs 33635 QSH is specified for ELITE benches; a nominal hole diameter alone does not establish universal bench compatibility. WORX WA0091 is a four-dog set for the named WORX tables, not a complete work table or a replacement for every clamping mechanism.
Allow for mounting and support
Pony 27091, Yost M9WW and Wilton 79A are distinct vise assemblies. Compare jaw format, opening, installation space and separately required hardware. Pony’s manual specifies bench-thickness considerations and shimming below its threshold. The Wilton adds a pivot-jaw format and supplied magnetic maple pads; that does not supply all mounting equipment.
Identify the accessory that still needs a vise
Sjöbergs Smart Vise is a portable assembly that needs external securing. The 33492 file clamp is held in a separate bench vise; it is not a freestanding vise. BORA’s dog fence provides a fence function. Compare the supporting equipment you already own before ordering another accessory with a similar product photograph.
Questions before you choose
Does a one-inch hole description guarantee a holdfast will fit my bench?
No. Confirm the selected model’s intended bench, actual hole and other installation requirements. The QSH reference is specifically associated with the named ELITE benches.
Do the retained vises include mounting hardware?
Check each selected offer. The Pony documentation excludes mounting hardware; the Wilton’s supplied jaw pads are not a complete mounting kit.
Can I use the Sjöbergs file clamp by itself?
It is intended to be secured in a separate bench vise. Compare the Smart Vise if you are considering a portable vise assembly, while allowing for its external securing equipment.
Advice based on the reviewed selected product listings, maker information and source images. No hands-on testing or universal compatibility is claimed.
