Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. Does Destaco offer manual clamps with similar specifications as Destaco 374 pull action latch clamp?
A. Destaco supplies similar latch clamps in different hook lengths: 25 mm longer than standard length (374-M-25), 50 mm longer than standard length (374-M-50) and 100 mm longer than standard hook length (374-M-100).
Q. Which lubricant is recommended for use with Destaco 374 latch clamp when rebuilding?
A. Coupling greases like Mobil XTC are recommended to be used with all of the brand's mechanical clamps, like the 374 latch clamp.
Q. Does the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps mean anything?
A. The red colour of the handles is used to indicate the handle location and when & where the user should grab it.
Q. Can the grips of the handles of Destaco clamps be removed?
A. Most Destaco clamps feature grips that can be easily removed by sliding them off. But some handle grips undergo vinyl dipping to fit the underlying handle and hence, have to be cut off for removing them.
Q. How do latch clamps work?
A. These pull action latch clamps have 3 main components - a handle to operate the tool, a clamping arm to act as a contact point between the work item & clamp, and a base to attach the clamp to the surface. Once the simple linkage system of the clamp is put in the over-centre position, the handle is moved for creating force perpendicular to the base and squeeze-holding the work items.
Q. How to select the right type of latch clamp?
A. Destaco clamps feature steel or stainless steel construction and are available in flange & narrow flange base mounting styles for easy installation. They are offered in varying holding capacities, indicating the maximum external force that a clamp can resist safely (in locked position), without getting deformed permanently. Also, one should calculate the distance between the clamping plate and workpiece in its farthest position, before choosing a latch clamp.
