Manual Swing Clamp Series

"Destaco's innovative clamping solution combines best features of pneumatic swing clamps and straight line action clamps to create a low-cost option for fixture builders," said a company spokesperson.

Destaco has developed a new line of patent-pending Manual Swing Clamps that combines two existing Destaco technologies to create an easy-to-use option for fixture building/testing, welding and assembly operations in the industrial, aerospace and automotive markets.

"The development of our new Manual Swing Clamp series comes as a result of customer requests for a less expensive clamp that can be manually operated without the need for any air," said Matt Girand, Destaco's Vice President and General Manager, Americas and Global Automation. "We have combined the best features of our existing pneumatic swing clamp and straight line action clamp products to fashion a new manually actuated solution that will give our customers another powerful tool to assist them with their most demanding workholding applications."

The Manual Swing Clamps are a combination of Destaco's 8200 Series Pneumatic Swing Clamps, which provide quick swing and clamp movement for increased productivity, and the 6004 Series Straight Line Action Clamps, which can be locked in two positions to enable either push or pull operation.

The new Manual Swing Clamps feature an enclosed cam track and can clamp and lock in both retract and extend positions. They also feature a detent that holds the clamp in the open position in order to prevent unwanted movement. Future versions will offer Destaco's Toggle Lock Plus, which locks the handle in both open and closed positions.
