Not enough magnet and rubber strips come off too easily

If you don't mind picking them up off the floor every time you need to set a workpiece in a vise, these jaw protectors are for you.

And with the help of magnets, they attach to the top of my tool box. where they're easy to access. The rubber coating shines in…

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Slightly wrinkled
