305, 307, 309 Series Hold Down Clamps

These Destaco 305, 307 & 309 Series horizontal hold down clamps are ideal for applications where hold-down action can effectively substitute fasteners. They are compact in size and low in height for confined spaces. The horizontal clamps are equipped with a handle that can be operated either from the front or the sides. They have a flanged base with a U shaped hold down bar, a clamp bar opening angle up to 92 degrees and a holding capacity of 750 lb. Destaco 305, 307 & 309 Series horizontal hold down clamps offer a stationary alternative to removable clamps when performing repetitive tasks. These hold down toggle clamps are made of steel / stainless steel and have a horizontal handle parallel to the clamping bar. They come with a handle, a lever system, and a securing bar. The securing bar ensures that the objects won’t move and the lever system applies enough pressure on the object to keep the workpiece steady for work. These clamps feature a fixed design to secure and loosen workpieces without moving the clamp itself. Destaco horizontal hold down clamps incorporate a linkage system that applies powerful clamping force with little effort to lock or even unlock. They are equipped with a spring in the jaw to hold it in place after a few adjustments. These toggle clamps are used to hold workpieces in place using a horizontal lever handle that lays flat when the clamp is engaged. Destaco toggle clamps feature an automatic pressure adjustment system that automatically adjusts the clamp's pressure. This allows the clamping of workpieces of various sizes to adjust the pressure themselves. Selected models are equipped with the Toggle Lock Plus release lever that prevents accidental opening due to vibration.

301, 311 Series Pull Action Latch Clamps

Destaco 301, 311 Series pull action latch clamps are designed for securing & molding closures for lids, doors & covers and also for assembling applications in the automotive, aerospace and food & packaging industries. These pull action latch clamps provide a stationary alternative to removable C clamps or spring clamps while securing material to the work surface and holding them in place using a lever handle that is pushed to the upright position when the clamp is engaged & pressed down to reach the locked position, ensuring quick and fatigue less clamping operations. These pull action latch clamps have a patented thumb control lever for single handed operation. These Destaco 301, 311 Series clamps feature a fixed stop that automatically limits handle movement at different clamping positions, and are made of steel / stainless steel for resisting corrosion on exposed surfaces. These pull action latch clamps have a flanged base with threaded holes, allowing the unit to be mounted to a worktable or flat surface. They depend on 3 main components - a base for attaching the clamp to the surface, a clamping arm for contact point between the work item & clamp and a handle for operating the tool. Once the simple linkage system of the clamp is put in the over centre position, the handle is pulled horizontally / vertically to create force parallel to the base and squeeze holding the items.

215 Series Horizontal Hold Down Clamps

Destaco 215 Series horizontal hold down clamps are used for holding workpieces in place with a lever handle that lays flat when the clamp is engaged. These clamping units apply downward clamping force. Upon rotating the handle of these horizontal toggle clamps downward, the clamping arm pivots downward in the opposite direction to lock over the centre. These Destaco 215 Series horizontal hold down clamps feature a low profile design to prevent obstruction. They offer a stationary alternative to removable clamps while performing repetitive tasks and are capable of withstanding loads up to 250 lb. These horizontal hold down clamps are made of steel / stainless steel for structural rigidity & corrosion resistance on exposed surfaces. Destaco 215 Series horizontal hold down clamps allow clamp bar opening up to 87 degrees and handle opening up to 78 degrees. While rotating the handle downwards, the clamping arm pivots downward in the opposite direction for locking over the centre. When the handle is configured in the horizontal position, these toggle clamps are in the locked position. These horizontal hold down clamps are equipped with flanged / straight bases with threaded holes for quick and secure installation.

Horizontal Handle Toggle Clamps

Horizontal handle toggle clamps are used in heavy duty horizontal clamping operations owing to their high clamping capacities and reliability. Raptor Supplies is a distributor of horizontal handle toggle clamps from brands like Destaco and Bessey. These heavy duty hold down clamps are designed for holding workpieces in place, with a lever handle that lays flat when the clamp is engaged. When the handle is in the horizontal position, these toggle clamps are in the locked position. These hold down clamps apply downward clamping force. Upon rotating the handle downward, the clamping arm pivots downward in the opposite direction to lock over the centre. These clamps feature a low profile to prevent obstruction.
Selected Destaco toggle clamps, including 213 Series clamps, feature an automatic pressure adjustment system that automatically adjusts the clamp's pressure. This allows the clamping of workpieces of varying sizes to adjust the pressure themselves. Most horizontal hold down toggle clamps are integrated with 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. The clamps are equipped with a spring in the jaw to hold it in place after a few adjustments.

Uses

Horizontal toggle clamps incorporate a wide combination of features, making them useful for CNC machining, automotive part assembling and fixture checking in the aerospace, automotive and food processing & packaging industries.

Frequently Asked Questions

How are straight line action clamps installed?

Destaco straight line action clamps come with through holes on the flanged / straight base that allow quick and secure surface or blade mounting onto flat surfaces / workpieces using simple screwing. They can be removed and installed at a different location by simply unscrewing using a screwdriver.

How are toggle clamps measured?

Toggle clamps are available in multiple variants having different holding capacities. The capacity of a particular toggle clamp can be measured by calculating the distance between the clamping plate (at its highest position) & the workbench.

Does Destaco supply any water resistant clamp sensors?

Yes, Destaco also supplies inductive sensors designed in accordance with IP65 standards to ensure protection from powerful hydraulic jets, dust & heavy rain.

What does clamping force mean?

Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to the 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.

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

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

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 a clamp's holding capacity signify?

The clamp's holding capacity or holding force represents the capability to hold down mechanical equipment or sheet metal while assembling automotive parts or during manufacturing processes.

How are horizontal toggle clamps used?

Horizontal toggle clamps use an over-centre locking action to hold a workpiece or fixture in the locked position.

What is the Toggle Lock Plus mechanism?

Selected Destaco horizontal clamp models feature the Toggle Lock Plus mechanism to prevent accidental opening of clamps.

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.
