This is part 1 of a 3 part video series about drop-forged classic pre WW2 Brockhaus Heuer vises.
This video introduces the two different classic heuer vise models: Heuer Primus D.R.P. and Heuer Front and shows the patents that were filed for both of them.
Part 2 will go into depth of the Heuer Primus D.R.P. and part 3 into the Heuer Front: How to disassemble, what to look out for...
Please excuse my horrible self-taught english pronuncation 😅.
Also please excuse the neighbor mowing grass and his kids screaming around. Did't even notice it that much during filming. This was my 3rd take (i.e. day) and lugging all those vises around for filming was no fun so it was the final one 😁 .

Great video, I just found at a local flea market a number 4 with D.R.P. mark and I beam construction, and your video helped me a lot to learn what I have.

Hello, very interesting, especially the models that never went into production. Looking forward to part 2.

@bastel_ 3 года назад

Working on it. It's a bit more complex so it takes a bit more work. Stay tuned :).

Very nice series on these old vices. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and research done on them. Quick question; I recently bought a Heuer Front from what I suspect is from the 40’s or 50’s but I just can’t find any info on it wherever I look on the web. Is there any place you recommend I take a look at (www/PDF:s or the like) where the range of the different models through the years/decades are shown? It looks like it was painted green from the beginning but I am not sure. Do you know if they shifted colors through the years/decades?

Hi, sorry for the bother, but I have a problem with a Heuer bench vise and I hope you can help me solve it. I have recently purchased a Heuer bench vice, Primus model, with 15cm wide jaws (on the body there are a number 6 and a number 8). The bench vice is in excellent mechanical condition, but aesthetically it requires some work (repainting). My problem is how to disassemble the worm. I cannot see a locking ring (as in newer bench vices) or a locking pin. There is a series of dots, in the shape of a circle, where the hole with the locking grain of the steel balls should be. I think it is an intermediate model between two different technologies. Thanks for the attention.

Sorry, I only handled Heuer vises with the set screw. Either it is hidden beneath paint or so at this place or something entirely different. You can contact Brockhaus-Heuer at www.heuer.de/en/contact/ , they are nice people.

@ryohunter2000 3 года назад

Hi, thank you very much for your reply. I have already tried to contact the house, but they have not been able to help me, even if they have been very nice to me. I sent you (to the email address you wrote in a previous comment), as I did with them, the photos of my vise. It is not a paint problem (I have already removed it) and it does not have the locking ring system of some models (like the newer ones). In an auction that is currently on ebay.de (auction number: 383968438037), and also in two comments of the owners who are on the site of the house, there are bench vices like mine. I think that, after being fitted in the factory, the hole was welded. There is some kind of mark where the hole should be. Maybe they did this with all bench vices. Later, with the passage of time, the owners have pierced them in order to disassemble them. Maybe my bench vise was never taken apart. Your every advice is appreciated. My best regards. Marcello

Great video. Do you know if heuer vises were ever made in Poland? I have a big PJW brand vise that looks very similar to the heuer design

@bastel_ 2 года назад

Yes. There was a post on the garagejournal forum once (images no longer available due to new forum software, so I can't give any helpful links).

@rustyoldshed7753 3 года назад

Hi very nice video and good info . Looks like you know a lot about these vices . I'am trying to find the age of a Heuer front 125mm vice that I'am about to restore . It looks like a new Heuer front vice but the anvil part is smaller than the new ones . Now they don't have 125mm ( 5'' ) on there catalog but mine got 5 inch jaws. Do you have an idea about the age of this vice ?

@bastel_ 3 года назад

On Brockhaus Heuer's facebook page is a post about a visit of some people at the factory (image google: heuer schraubstock heimatkreis plettenberg), posted June 12th 2019, and that photo has a scan of a old advert from 1954 which shows the "1952" model I mentioned in my video (patented 1949). Still has tubes for the lead screw but the welded on feet. This seems to have the rectangular anvil plate already and 125 mm jaw width. Is your anvil plate rectangular? (Should have showed this in the video, sorry.)

@rustyoldshed7753 3 года назад

Yes it has a rectangular anvil. this vise looks much newer than the ones on your videos it looks like the modern Heuer front vise but with 5'' jaws and smaller anvil plate. if you can send me your email I can send some photos. I 'am trying to find the correct colour and the age of this vise. Do you collect vises ? look so cool, hard to find those hear in Australia . We do have pretty good vises made in Australia . I have uploaded some videos on my channel about vises, check them out if you get time. thanks

@bastel_ 3 года назад

@@rustyoldshed7753 Yes, I saw your videos. I think your vise is a 1952 model then. The color Heuer currently uses is a custom color. You can go to my channel and in my contacts is a link to my instagram where I usually post my vise stuff 😀 and can be contacted.

@rustyoldshed7753 3 года назад

@@bastel_ Hi thanks for pointing me to the right direction , I found some catalog pages on Heuer facebook page. My model was on 1957 catalog and the colour is blue . Now I have to match the colour as best as Ican . Do you have zeus vs model vices as well ?? that's No 1 on my list but haven't seen one in Australia yet.
