Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What other variants of Destaco 237-U manual clamp are available on Raptor Supplies?

A. Destaco offers similar clamps in stainless steel construction (Destaco 237-USS) to resist corrosion and operate in outdoor environment.

Q. How does a horizontal hold down clamp work?

Q. What is the difference between a vertical & horizontal toggle clamp?

A. The difference between a vertical & horizontal toggle clamp lies in the locking positioning of the clamp handle. A vertical clamp handle is vertically oriented or perpendicular to the base when in a locked position, whereas the horizontal toggle clamp is horizontally oriented or parallel to the base.

Q. What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?

A. Holding capacity or the holding force indicates the ideal capability (measured during the clamp manufacturing process) of the clamp to hold down the equipment, workpiece or sheet metal on the assembly line or during other industrial applications.

A. Coupling greases like Mobil XTC are recommended for use during the rebuilding or servicing of the Destaco manual clamps.

Q. Does the red colour of the handle signify anything on Destaco clamps?

A. The red coloured handles alerts the operator of the location of the operating handle and when should he grab it.

Q. Are Destaco clamps rust resistant?

A. Yes, Destaco carbon steel clamps are zinc plated to withstand & minimise wear & tear due to harsh industrial environments. Destaco also supplies stainless steel clamps for applications requiring clamping in outdoor conditions.
