Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. Are other variants of Destaco 247208 spindle available on Raptor Supplies?

A. Raptor Supplies can deliver a similar spindle having 5/8-11 imperial threadings. We also offer Destaco metric threaded neoprene spindles, swivel foot spindles, round bonded spindles and hex head spindles.

Q. What is the difference between flat tip bonded spindles and swivel foot spindles?

A. The flat tip bonded spindles are used to reduce marking on fragile or polished surfaces while swivel foot spindles are used where a workpiece with a large area needs to be clamped.

Q. How is clamping force different from the holding force / capacity?

A. The term "holding force or capacity" indicates the ideal strength of the clamp for holding down the equipment, workpieces or sheet metal on the assembly line or during other industrial applications. The holding force is measured during the clamp manufacturing process, so does not provide a practical measure of the capacity of the clamp. Clamping force or exerting force denotes the actual force exerted by the clamp on the workpieces for holding them. The clamping force is generally lesser than the holding capacity, due to several factors, such as the position of spindle in the clamping bar and the opposing force applied on the clamp.

Q. Which grease is recommended for use with Destaco clamps?

A. A coupling grease, such as Mobil XTC is recommended for use with the brand's mechanical clamps.

Q. Are Destaco clamps used for hoisting or lifting applications?

A. No, Destaco clamps are load-rated only for clamping applications. They are not designed for hoisting or lifting applications.
