In 1956, Mr. Colbert needed an easy way to inspect and work on his dies. To make his
work more productive, he invented and patented the famous “split-ball.” The split-
ball is a clever adaptation that allows a vise head to move easily through three planes
(Tilt, Turn & Rotate) and to lock securely into position with a single control knob.
To this day, his invention still forms the core of our product line.
Following in Mr. Colbert’s footsteps, PanaVise continues to design and manufacture
products that solve practical problems. Over the years, a natural outgrowth of our
work holding expertise has been to develop other items which hold things securely
and offer a wide range of motion. Our Mobile Electronics, CCTV Camera Mounts,
and Audio/Video Mounts are perfect examples of how we’ve applied Mr. Colbert’s
philosophy to solve practical, real-world problems. Our dedication to finding
innovative holding solutions has earned us the nickname “the hold it anywhere
you want it company.”
