    It looks like part of a GRS holding device. If I'm not mistaken, and
    I may be; it's used in conjunction with thermo-loc to form a holding
    device to be held in a vice. The part pictured is removed before the
    device is used. It retains enough flexibility to be tightened in the
    vice. The device is reusable. Convincing?? KPK

    Why that's a menu holder for the restaurant table. Menu - manue -
    mandrel? 

From: R.E.Rourke <vieuxcarrejewelers AT gmail.com>

    My best guess- it's a bending brake insert for angled bends..Modern
    Metals magazine has photos of products that look similar..it seems
    too angled to hold pliers, and is oriented upside down..On the other
    hand the coating or composition looks graphite included and i would
    speculate, if not a bending brake insert, for glass manufacturing as
    opposed to enammeling trivets, etc.
