The VB-888-CIM is a matched pair of 8" x 8" x 8" cast iron V-blocks from Suburban Tool, built for supporting long round work across two blocks during layout, inspection and workholding.

Cast from close-grain cast iron for rigidity and vibration damping, the pair is matched within 0.0005" so cylindrical parts stay in alignment across both vees. Each 90° vee cradles round work, and the drilled-and-tapped top faces each ship with one clamp and two clamp screws for secure setups.

  • Matched pair of 8" cast iron V-blocks, matched within 0.0005"
  • Close-grain cast iron for rigidity and vibration damping
  • 90° vees support long shafts and cylindrical work across two blocks
  • Top faces drilled and tapped; each block includes one clamp and two clamp screws
  • Made in the USA by Suburban Tool
