Horizontal Handle Toggle Clamps

Horizontal handle toggle clamps are used in heavy duty horizontal clamping operations owing to their high clamping capacities and reliability. Raptor Supplies is a distributor of horizontal handle toggle clamps from brands like Destaco and Bessey. These heavy duty hold down clamps are designed for holding workpieces in place, with a lever handle that lays flat when the clamp is engaged. When the handle is in the horizontal position, these toggle clamps are in the locked position. These hold down clamps apply downward clamping force. Upon rotating the handle downward, the clamping arm pivots downward in the opposite direction to lock over the centre. These clamps feature a low profile to prevent obstruction.
Selected Destaco toggle clamps, including 213 Series clamps, feature an automatic pressure adjustment system that automatically adjusts the clamp's pressure. This allows the clamping of workpieces of varying sizes to adjust the pressure themselves. Most horizontal hold down toggle clamps are integrated with a linkage system that applies powerful clamping force with little effort to lock or unlock. Since this force is directed along the links, locking or unlocking the toggle does not require any force. The clamps are equipped with a spring in the jaw to hold it in place after a few adjustments.

Horizontal toggle clamps incorporate a wide combination of features, making them useful for CNC machining, automotive part assembling and fixture checking in the aerospace, automotive and food processing & packaging industries.

• Destaco horizontal latch type toggle clamps need little effort for locking & unlocking, and have a pin connection for resisting movement in different directions, allowing clamp rotation about the axis. Selected models are equipped with a unique lever & pivot system to provide maximum accuracy while clamping and accomodating workpieces of different heights.
• Horizontal hold down clamps have a lever handle that lays flat when the clamp is engaged, for holding workpieces in a stationary position. They apply downward clamping force when the handle is in the locked position. Upon rotating the handle downward, the clamping arm pivots downward in the opposite direction to lock over the centre.
• Bessey horizontal toggle clamps are self adjusting units that can maintain clamping force while self-adjusting to variations in the workpiece height. They feature an integrated pressure screw which allows clamping force adjustment from 25 to 550 lb.
