Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is a straight line action clamp?
A. Destaco straight line action clamps are manually operated push / pull style clamps that are used for various applications, such as welding, woodworking, tensioning devices and various assembly & testing operations.
Q. Does the brand offer straight line action clamps in other styles?
A. Yes, apart from this stainless steel clamp, Destaco also offers various similar, carbon steel clamps (Destaco 601-M clamp & Destaco 601-O clamp).
Q. What does clamping force mean?
A. Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to a 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. How do manual clamps work?
A. Unlike straight line action pneumatic clamps, regular manual style clamps from Destaco have a separate handle for engaging the plunger to hold the workpiece in place.
Q. How do straight line action clamps work?
A. Some straight line action clamps, such as Destaco 601-SS clamp, feature a threaded plunger that is manually fastened using a plastic grip handle. These clamps have a two way locking handle (retracted or extended position) for enabling the user to use this clamp either in push or pull type configuration.
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 the equipment or sheet metal on the assembly line or during any other manufacturing process.
Q. Are Destaco clamps rust resistant?
A. Yes, carbon steel clamps from Destaco are zinc plated for withstanding & minimising wear against harsh industrial environments. For applications that require clamping in outdoor conditions, stainless steel clamps are also available.
Q. Which grease is recommended for use with Destaco clamps when rebuilding?
A. For ensuring smooth operation & durability of mechanical clamps, it is recommended to use a coupling grease like Mobil XTC.
Q. What does the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps mean?
A. The red coloured handles alert the user about the location of the operating handle and when he should grab it. The red colour has no additional advantage to the working of the clamps.
Q. Does the brand offer straight line action clamps in other configurations?
A. Destaco also offers a wide range of straight line action clamps that are available in a variety of configurations & styles, such as routable / straight handle, stainless steel & Toggle Lock Plus enabled designs.
