Destaco 235208-M flat tip bonded neoprene spindle or toggle clamp spindle assembly is a threaded rod with a rubber stopper that is designed for securing materials to work surfaces. When the rubber stopper begins to wear away, this spindle eliminates the risk of disfiguring and acts as a replacement unit for toggle clamps to extend their service life and to protect them from damage caused by abrasion / twisting / flexing. This neoprene spindle helps ensure optimal functionality and performance during welding, drilling and milling operations in the aerospace, automotive and food & packaging industries. It can be adjusted to accommodate materials of varying thicknesses and can mount onto compatible toggle clamps including manual, power and hydraulic clamps. The spindle features neoprene construction to exhibit chemical stability by maintaining flexibility over temperatures ranging from -20 degrees to 100 degrees Celsius, as well as ensuring maximum clamping force. It is configured with a neoprene tip to prevent marring and is supplied with jam nuts for secure clamping by allowing adjustments between the clamping distance. It has oil resistant and silicone free properties for exceptional service life and offering hardness up to 85 Shore A.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What does clamping force mean?
A. Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to the workpiece by closing & locking the clamp. It is normally less than the stated holding capacity. The actual clamping force depends on various factors, such as cylinder bore, cylinder area, spindle position (clamping arm length) and available air pressure. In most cases, the clamping force is approximately 2 to 3 times the force exerted by a pneumatic cylinder.
Q. Does Destaco supply water resistant clamp sensors?
A. Yes, Destaco also supplies inductive sensors that are designed in accordance with IP65 standards to ensure protection from powerful hydraulic jets, dust & heavy rain.
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 is the significance of the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps?
A. The red coloured handles alert the operator of the location of the operating handle and when should he grab it.
Q. What does the clamp's holding capacity signify?
A. The holding capacity or holding force represents the capability of a clamp for holding down mechanical equipment or sheet metal while assembling automotive parts or during manufacturing processes.
