Expert By Facom Workbenches & Vices give garages, workshops and home workspaces a solid base for the job in hand. A good workbench provides a stable, flat surface for assembly, repair and fabrication. A vice holds the workpiece firmly so both hands are free for filing, sawing, drilling or fitting.
Tooled-Up.com stocks Expert By Facom workbenches for anyone setting up or upgrading a workshop. The Workbenches sub-category is the place to start if you need a dedicated work surface. Pairing a bench with a suitable vice gives you a complete work-holding setup.

Key Features of Expert By Facom Workbenches & Vices
- Steel construction: Steel frames and work surfaces resist knocks, drops and the general wear of a busy workshop.
- Generous work surfaces: A wide, flat top gives you room to lay out components, tools and fixings while you work.
- Storage options: Where a bench includes drawers or cupboards, tools stay close to hand and off the work surface.
- Secure clamping: A vice holds metal, timber or components steady, which improves accuracy and reduces the risk of slips.
- Stable footing: A rigid frame keeps the bench steady during sawing, hammering and heavy assembly.
Always check a product's listed load rating, worktop size and mounting details before ordering. These vary between models and should match the work you plan to do.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I choose the right Expert By Facom workbench?
Start with the space available, then consider the work you do most. Check the worktop dimensions, the load rating and whether you need drawers or cupboards. Heavier jobs such as engine work or metal fabrication need a more rigid, higher-capacity bench.
Can I fit a vice to my workbench?
In most cases, yes, provided the worktop is thick and strong enough to take the clamping forces. Mount the vice over a supported part of the bench, not an unsupported span. Use fixings that suit the worktop material, and check the vice's mounting requirements on its product page.
Can I use power tools on a workbench?
Yes. Many users run 240v power tools at the bench, but keep cables tidy and clear of the work area. Use a properly protected supply with a 13A plug or RCD-protected extension lead, and follow HSE guidance on keeping walkways and work areas free of trip hazards.
How should I look after a workbench and vice?
Wipe down surfaces after use and keep vice threads and slides clean and lightly lubricated. Check fixings and joints now and then for any loosening. Regular care helps both products stay stable and accurate in everyday use.
