Product Details

Destaco 205-UL horizontal hold down clamp has robust construction to offer durability. It holds workpieces in place using a horizontal lever handle that lays flat when the clamp is engaged. This hold down clamp offers a stationary alternative to removable clamps when performing repetitive tasks. It comprises accurately machined components having hardened & ground pivot pins and bushings. This horizontal hold down clamp offers high clamping ability to reduce necessary fixtures for a particular application. Destaco 205-UL horizontal hold down clamp enables the user to undertake an action without being worried about the frequent movement of the workpiece. It holds workpieces in place using a lever handle that is pushed to the upright position when the clamp is engaged. This Destaco toggle clamp is used in grinding, welding, assembling, machining and metal fabricating applications in the aerospace, automotive and food & packaging industries. This horizontal hold down clamp has a fixed design to secure & loosen workpieces without moving the clamp itself. It comes integrated with a high strength, forged alloy steel clamping arm for increased strength and handling a maximum load of 60 lb. Destaco 205-UL horizontal hold down clamp incorporates a linkage system that applies powerful clamping force with little effort to lock or unlock. Since this force is directed along the links, locking or unlocking the toggle does not require any force.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do you adjust a horizontal toggle clamp?

After clamping, the force can be adjusted by loosening / tightening the spindle nut (supplied with selected units for protection from abrasion, twisting or flexing).

What is the difference between a vertical & horizontal toggle clamp?

The difference lies in the positioning of the clamp handle when the clamp is in the locked position. A vertical clamp handle is positioned vertically (perpendicular to the base) when in locked position, while in the case of a horizontal toggle clamp, it is positioned horizontally (parallel to the base).

How does a horizontal hold down toggle clamp work?

The toggle clamp actuates against the workpiece and compresses or stretches the equipped linkages to keep the workpiece in a stationary position.

What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?

The holding force or the holding capacity signifies the clamp's capability to hold down the equipment or sheet metal on the assembly line or during similar manufacturing processes.

Which grease is ideal for Destaco clamps for their rebuilding?

A coupling grease like Mobil XTC should be used when dealing with Destaco mechanical clamps, while the Magnalube G grease is great for use with pneumatic cylinder seals.

What is the significance of the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps?

There is no such significance of the colour of the clamp's handle, as it only represents a recognisable area. This helps operators in finding the handle quickly & easily.

What does clamping force mean?

Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to a workpiece by closing & locking the clamp. It is normally less than the stated holding capacity. The actual clamping force depends on various factors, including cylinder bore, cylinder area, spindle position (clamping arm length) and available air pressure. In most cases, the clamping force is approximately 2 to 3 times the force exerted by a pneumatic cylinder.
