DESTACO 506-MLB Vertical Hold Down Clamp, Weldable Arm, 5000 lb Capacity

Destaco 506-MLB weldable vertical hold down clamp is designed to apply downward clamping force by increasing the applied load via toggle mechanisms. The clamp offers a stationary alternative to removable C clamps or spring clamps when securing material to a work surface. It holds workpieces in place using a lever handle that is pushed to the upright position when the clamp is engaged. This lever handle engages & releases the clamping head, which holds a workpiece onto a worktable and is used in welding, assembling and heavy duty production applications. It is equipped with an ergonomically designed handle to minimise strain and pain while working. This 506-MLB weldable vertical toggle clamp offers the flexibility to position the base, clamp arm & handle and weld them in any desired position to suit different applications. It comprises accurately machined components having hardened & ground pivot pins and bushings. It can adapt to workpieces of different heights and is virtually maintenance free as it only requires a few drops of lubricating oil to keep the clamp in excellent condition. This 506-MLB hold down toggle clamp features high clamping ability that reduces necessary fixtures for a particular application and is capable of handling loads up to 5000 lb. The unique pivot and lever system ensures maximum function and excellent performance. It has high exerting force and flexible adjustability that are useful when working with materials of varying thicknesses. The fixed design of this clamp secures & loosens workpieces without moving the clamp itself. Additionally, Destaco 506-MLB clamp enables the user to undertake an action without being worried by the frequent movement of a workpiece.
