TOOLS OR BENCH DEVICES NOT OTHERWISE PROVIDED FOR, FOR FASTENING, CONNECTING, DISENGAGING OR HOLDING

Introduced: September 1968

Description

B25B covers hand tools and bench devices for assembly, disassembly, and workholding operations not classified elsewhere in B25. This includes vises, clamps, holders, wrenches for fastening/unfastening, and specialized gripping or positioning devices used in manual workshops and assembly work. The classification encompasses both portable tools and fixed bench-mounted equipment designed for temporary or permanent fastening, connecting components, or securely holding workpieces during manufacturing or repair operations.
