Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What are standard pneumatic swing clamp arms used for?

A. Pneumatic swing clamp arms use compressed air for tightening the clamp to hold things in a way that prevents them from moving, falling or separating.

Q. Which Destaco clamps are these pneumatic swing clamp arms compatible with?

A. These pneumatic swing clamp arms are compatible with Destaco 89R Series pneumatic swing clamps for flexible configuration.

Q. What is a pneumatic swing clamp?

A. Pneumatic swing clamps are used for clamping workpieces. They are ideal for applications that require low clamping force. These clamps keep the clamping area free of straps and clamping components for unrestricted workpiece loading and unloading.

Q. How to choose between a left hand and a right hand swing?

A. To determine whether to choose a left or right swing variant, you need to visualise the arm from above, during the clamping stroke. Arms moving clockwise are right hand swing and arms moving counterclockwise are left hand swing variants.

Q. What accessories do Destaco pneumatic swing clamps require to function?

A. Pneumatic swing clamps require spindles (flat tip, swivel foot or hex head), flanges, replacement seal kits, clamping arm adapters and end mounting foot assemblies for proper and smooth functioning.
