DESTACO 506-MB Vertical Hold Down Toggle Locking Clamp, 5000 lb Capacity

Destaco 506-MB vertical hold down clamp is designed to apply downward clamping force by increasing the applied load via toggle mechanisms. It offers a stationary alternative to removable C clamps or spring clamps when securing & holding material to a work surface using a lever handle that engages & releases the clamping head by pushing the handle to the upright position when the clamp is engaged. This vertical hold down toggle locking clamp is equipped with an ergonomically designed handle to minimise strain and pain while working. It comprises accurately machined components having hardened & ground pivot pins and bushings to tolerate loads up to 5000 lb during welding, assembling and heavy duty production applications. This weldable vertical toggle locking clamp offers the flexibility to position the base, clamp arm & handle and weld them in any desired position to suit different applications. It can adapt to workpieces of different heights and is virtually maintenance free as it only requires a few drops of lubrication to keep the clamp in an efficient condition. Additionally, the clamp features high clamping ability that reduces necessary fixtures for a particular application. It has high exerting force and flexible adjustability that are useful when working with materials of varying thicknesses. The fixed design of the clamp secures & loosens workpieces without moving the clamp itself. Destaco 506-MB clamp also enables the user to undertake an action without being worried by the frequent movement of a workpiece.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What is a vertical hold down clamp?

A. Destaco vertical hold down clamps are designed for holding the workpiece stationary against a flat surface / workbench for various industrial applications like woodworking & metalworking.

Q. How do you adjust a vertical hold down toggle clamp?

A. After clamping, the clamping force can be adjusted by loosening / tightening the spindle nut.

Q. What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?

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

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. Does Destaco supply any water resistant clamp sensors?
