Born from a design by master bench jeweler Jeff Mathews for microscope users, the GRS® Slide‑and‑Lock Tru‑Axis Adapter is an innovative upgrade for the Original Slide & Lock fixture. It adds smooth vertical movement (up to 4″) while keeping the workpiece clear of overhead microscopes. A user-friendly brass cam lock enables quick height adjustments during sequential tasks. This adapter supports tools mounted on GRS Fixed Mounting Plates—including Block Shelf, Bench Pin, Vise, and BenchMate systems—and accommodates up to 35 lb of equipment.
Use Cases:
-
Preventing microscope collision by maintaining workpiece height
-
Rapid repositioning for multi-step setting and engraving
-
Supporting dual-tool setups such as combining engraving and holding tools
