Product Details

Overview & Technology

RockShox 35mm vise blocks are purpose-built clamping blocks for rear shock bodies used when setting the Internal Floating Piston (IFP) and performing other service operations. These blocks provide a controlled, repeatable 35mm contact surface that protects the shock's body finish while allowing secure clamping in a bench vise or workstand. Precision manufacturing ensures concentric gripping and reduces the risk of marring or deforming the shock during service. This unit is the OEM solution for the Deluxe Coil B1+ (2023+) rear shock and carries SRAM Model ID TL-RST-VB-A3 for correct model matching and workshop reliability.

Key Features

Built for safe, accurate maintenance: these vise blocks give you a stable platform to set IFP heights, remove and install air can assemblies, and perform seal or shaft work without clamping directly onto delicate surfaces. The 35mm diameter matches the shock body profile for an even, secure grip. • Dedicated 35mm bore — exact fit for Deluxe Coil B1+ (2023+). • SRAM Model ID TL-RST-VB-A3 — OEM part identification for compatibility. • Lightweight and compact — easy to store and transport in a tech kit.

Fit & Compatibility

These vise blocks are specified for rear shock bodies with a 35mm external profile — specifically the RockShox Deluxe Coil B1+ 2023 and later models. They are intended to be used in pairs (left/right) when available and work with standard bench vises or shop clamps that accept protective blocks. Product details: Manufacturer Part #: 00.4318.040.001, Product Number: 902474. Shipping dimensions are 5.15" x 2.5" x 0.75" and weight is 0.1 lb — compact enough to fit in a bike shop drawer or travel toolbox.

Who It's For

This tool is aimed at shop technicians, experienced home mechanics, and suspension-savvy riders who perform in-depth rear shock service. If you routinely set IFP, change seals, or rebuild Deluxe Coil B1+ shocks, these vise blocks are a small but essential investment to protect the shock and speed up accurate setups. Casual riders or those who only perform basic maintenance (air pressure checks and external cleaning) may not need dedicated vise blocks, but for anyone servicing suspension frequently, OEM-matched blocks reduce risk and increase repeatability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What do these vise blocks do?

Vise blocks provide a protective, precision clamping surface for rear shock bodies so you can safely set the IFP, perform seal changes, and do other service tasks without damaging the shock finish.

Are these blocks compatible with my RockShox shock?

These 35mm blocks are specifically sized for the Deluxe Coil B1+ (2023+). Check your shock's external body diameter and SRAM Model ID TL-RST-VB-A3 to confirm compatibility before purchase.

Can I use these with any bench vise?

Yes — they are designed to be used with standard bench vises or workstands. Always use protective jaws or soft padding and clamp only on the shock body, not on the piston rod or seals.

Do I need a pair of blocks?

Most shop procedures use blocks in pairs to balance clamping pressure and improve stability, though a single block can be used for some tasks. For best practice, keep matching blocks available when performing IFP setting and rebuilds.

What are the part and product numbers?

Manufacturer Part #: 00.4318.040.001 and Product Number: 902474. The SRAM Model ID is TL-RST-VB-A3 for reference.

How should I care for the vise blocks?

Wipe clean after use, avoid dropping on hard surfaces, and inspect for wear or burrs that could mark a shock. Store in a padded drawer or toolbox to preserve the machined contact surfaces.

Buying Guide

When selecting vise blocks for suspension service, match the block diameter to the shock body and choose OEM or OEM-spec tools where possible. Blocks sized to the exact outer diameter reduce stress concentrations and lower the risk of cosmetic or structural damage during clamping. Look for durable, precision-machined units and keep a matched pair for repeatable, safe clamping. Investing in the correct vise blocks pays back quickly if you regularly service rear shocks — they protect your expensive components and make setup work faster and more accurate.
