Destaco 217-U horizontal hold down clamp is designed for holding down workpieces against flat surfaces in woodworking & manufacturing facilities. This hold down action clamp is suitable for applications that require working on the same workpiece repeatedly. It features a low profile design that minimises the space requirement for clamp installation & usage, thereby enabling ease of operation in confined spaces. Its U shaped bar is designed for enabling quick spindle adjustment along the holding bar length. This feature enables the worker to adjust the toggle clamp for workpieces of different sizes. Additionally, this toggle clamp comes with a neoprene spindle that keeps the workpiece stationary throughout the operation & prevents it from loosening / slipping. This clamp has steel construction for ensuring strength and preventing bending / breaking under heavy loads. However, this clamp is not recommended for machining & metalworking applications. This toggle clamp is also offered in stainless steel made, straight base U bar and flanged base open bar variants on Raptor Supplies.
A. Destaco horizontal hold down clamps are designed for keeping a workpiece stationary against a flat surface / workbench, for various industrial applications like metalworking and woodworking.
A. Some U bar style clamping arm clamps feature a flat tip bonded neoprene spindle that is manually operated using a handle / lever. This handle movement pushes the spindle against the workpiece and prevents it from moving mid operation, thereby ensuring secure clamping.
A. For ensuring smooth operation & durability of mechanical clamps, it is recommended to use a coupling grease like Mobil XTC.
A. The holding force or the holding capacity depicts the clamp's capability to hold down sheet metal or equipment on assembly lines or during manufacturing processes.
A. The red coloured handles on Destaco clamps just denote a recognisable area. This is done to alert the worker / operator where the operating handle is and where he should grab it. Its colour has no additional significance to the working of the clamp.
A. The difference lies in the positioning of the 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).
A. Yes, in addition to this flanged base U bar variant, Destaco offers straight base U bar (Destaco 217-UB) and flanged base open bar (Destaco 217-U-L) horizontal clamps as well. For highly abrasive conditions, using the stainless steel constructed Destaco 217-USS toggle clamp is recommended.
