De-sta-co 035-240-290 Air Swing Clamp 70.14 Lb

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 035-240-290 is a double-acting pneumatic air swing clamp designed for use in industrial fixturing, welding, and automated assembly applications. It delivers 70.14 pounds of clamping force and swings the clamp arm to the left hand direction, allowing the work surface to clear for part loading and unloading. The unit uses a 1/8 NPT port and operates at up to 100 psi. With a body length of 2.95 inches and a 1.09-inch total stroke, this compact clamp is suited for tight fixture layouts where reliable, repeatable clamping is required. Installation is typically performed by automation technicians or fixture builders.

The 035-240-290 is intended for pneumatic fixturing systems in manufacturing environments, including robotic welding cells, CNC machining fixtures, and assembly jigs. The flange mount configuration allows it to be bolted directly to fixture plates or base structures. The left-hand swing arc keeps the clamping arm clear of the workpiece during loading, which is a common requirement in high-cycle production cells. A double-acting cylinder provides powered open and close strokes, giving the system positive control in both directions without relying on a return spring.

Key Features

• Double-acting cylinder provides powered clamping and unclamping strokes
• 70.14 pounds of clamping force at rated pressure
• Left-hand swing direction clears arm from the work zone during part load
• 1/8 NPT port fits standard pneumatic fittings and tubing
• Flange mount design for direct attachment to fixture plates
• Compact 2.95-inch body length suits tight fixture envelopes

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-fit pneumatic swing clamp for industrial fixturing systems requiring a flange-mount, double-acting, left-hand swing configuration with a 1/8 NPT port at up to 100 psi operating pressure.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by automation or fixture technicians. Isolate and bleed all pneumatic pressure from the circuit before removing or installing the clamp. Verify that supply pressure does not exceed the 100 psi maximum rated operating pressure. Confirm port connections are sealed properly with appropriate thread sealant to prevent air leaks that can reduce clamping force consistency.
