I would, except I don't do twitter nor arse book, but thanks for looking and trying to help.

Ok. Lets try going at this from the reverse direction. If I give you the dimensions of the jaw plates as fitted, can any of you compare these with your own Record No. 5 vices, so at least I'll know if those would fit ??

overall length ; 5" or 127 mm. overall height ; 31/32" or 24.5 mm. overall thickness/depth ; 1/2" or 12.5 mm. clearance hole for fixing screw ; 5/16" or 8 mm. max diameter of countersink on face ; 21/32" or 16.5 mm and lastly hole centres are at 3 1/8" or 80 mm, and central to the height.

Hows that ?

So I picked up this little beauty at a garage sale the other day. It is a paramo No. 4 hi duty. I was wondering if anyone could help me out with some more info, history and perhaps somewhere to find parts.

Hello Gentlemen oops, sorry, Hi Guys ! Question is, can someone tell me either all of the dimensions for replacement Record 5" jaws, or indeed, if these will be a straight fit onto my Paramo ? I'm relying on you now ....

Cheers, Andy G.

Sorry for the late response..

Yes, it should fit.
The 'Record No6 jaws' are a straight fit on my Paramo No6.
It should be the same for the Paramo No5

Sorry for the late response..

It's OK - he has not been on for a few years . . .
