DESTACO 607-SQM Straight Line Action Clamp, M8 Threaded Square Plunger, 800 lb

Straight line action clamps are used to hold objects / workpieces securely by moving the clamp plungers along their axis using push / pull / straight line toggle clamping action. They can be locked in both extended & retracted positions for use as both pull & push clamps or in only extended position for use as push clamps. They are ideal for use in testing, welding, fixturing, tensioning, CNC machining & plastic injection moulding applications that require regular clamping & unclamping. Destaco 607 Series clamps feature a lever handle that rotates downwards to lock the plunger in the retracted position. These clamps have flanged base for easy mounting & heavy-duty clamping of workpieces. They have a low profile design for use in confined spaces & tough to reach areas and have a high holding capacity as compared to their size. Destaco 607-SQM straight line action clamp can be locked in both extended and retracted position for use as a push & pull clamp. It has a square plunger with metric internal threads for quick fastening of a metric threaded spindle. This clamp is made of steel to provide strength & durability and prevent wear & tear caused due to heavy duty operations. Raptor Supplies also offers similar manual clamps with round plungers and imperial internal threaded plungers for accommodating imperial threaded spindle assemblies.

Frequently Asked Questions:

Q. What other variants of Destaco 607-SQM clamp are available on Raptor Supplies?

A. Raptor Supplies offers this manual clamp in variants having a round plunger (607-M) and 5/16-18 (imperial) plunger threads (607-SQ).

Q. How do straight line action clamps work?

A. Straight line action clamps are manually operated using levers or handles for pushing clamp plungers against the workpieces and holding them securely.

Q. Are Destaco clamps corrosion resistant?

A. All Destaco carbon steel clamps are zinc plated to resist wear & tear due to harsh industrial environments and provide rust resistance. Destaco also supplies stainless steel clamps for applications requiring clamping in outdoor conditions.

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

A. The red coloured handles alert the user about the location of the operating handle and where he should grab it.

Q. Can we remove the handles of Destaco clamps?

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. Are Destaco clamps load rated for hoisting and / or lifting applications?

A. No, Destaco clamps are not designed for hoisting or lifting applications to allow safe & secure operation.

Q. Does Destaco deliver customised or special versions of their clamps according to customer requirements / applications?

A. Destaco can supply customised versions of their clamps upon request. The customisations can range from different colours of handles to the removal of the Destaco logo from the clamps.

Q. Which grease is recommended to be used with Destaco clamps when rebuilding?

A. Whenever you're dealing with the brand's mechanical clamps, it is recommended to use a coupling grease like Mobil XTC.

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 a sheet metal on the assembly line or during similar manufacturing processes.
