Pneumatic clampsemploy air actuated pneumatic cylinders for applying clamping pressure to hold down workpieces that require repetitive clamping / unclamping. Destaco pneumatic toggle clamps are suitable for performing fixturing, testing, assembly & welding operations in automotive and food & packaging applications. Destaco 810 Seriespneumatic hold down clamps are pneumatic versions of 210 Series manual clamps. They are sensor ready for accommodating both round & T slot type sensors to detect open or close position of the clamps. These clamps feature a built in flow restriction to eliminate the need for an external flow control. Destaco 810-U-LC is used to replace old or worn out assembly of Destaco 810-U or 810-UE clamp. This clamp assembly is equipped with a U clamping bar for accommodating an adjustable spindle assembly. It is operated using a pneumatic cylinder that has a magnetic ring piston for smooth operation & position sensing. This pneumatic cylinder consumes 0.029 cubic feet of air through a 1/8 NPT or G-1/8 port and can handle a maximum pressure of 10 bar. Destaco 810-U-LC pneumatic clamp provides a maximum load holding capacity of 600 lb. It is completely self contained & requires only a pressure source to provide user safety. This clamp's base has threaded mounting holes for quick & easy installation on a horizontal surface / workpiece. Raptor Supplies offers this clamp in a variant having a maximum holding capacity of 750 lb and a solid clamping bar for fixed positioning of a spindle.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What other variants of Destaco 810-U-LC replacement clamp assembly are available on Raptor Supplies?
A. Raptor Supplies also offers this replacement clamp assembly in a variant having solid bar & 750 lb holding capacity.
Q. What are pneumatic toggle clamps?
A. Pneumatic toggle clamps feature the same basic design and operation as manual hold-down or straight-line toggle clamps, but are operated pneumatically. They are completely self-contained and require only a pressure source hook-up.
Q. Which grease is ideal for Destaco clamps for their rebuilding?
A. 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.
Q. What does a clamp's holding capacity signify?
A. The holding capacity or holding force represents the capability of a clamp to hold down mechanical equipment or sheet metal while assembling automotive parts or during manufacturing processes.
Q. How is clamping force different from the holding force / capacity?
A. Clamping force or exerting force refers to the actual force that the clamp exerts onto the workpiece for holding it. The holding force or capacity provides a measure of the ideal strength of the clamp that is measured during the manufacturing process. The clamping force is generally lesser than the holding capacity, depending upon several factors, such as the position of the attached spindle in the clamping bar and the opposing force applied on the clamp.
Q. Does the brand offer pneumatic hold down clamp in other configurations?
A. Destaco also offers a wide range of light & medium duty pneumatic clamps that are available in a range of configurations, styles and materials (aluminium / steel).
