De-sta-co 105208 Cap Tip Clamp Spindle Assembly 8-32

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 105208 is a cap tip clamp spindle assembly designed for use with manually operated toggle clamps. Threaded at 8-32 with a carbon steel spindle body, this assembly provides a reliable contact point for clamping workpieces in fixturing and holding applications. The flat neoprene tip cap measures 0.44 inches in tip surface diameter and carries a durometer hardness rating of 70 to 80A, giving it controlled grip and surface protection without marring finished workpieces. Overall length is 1 inch, and the assembly ships with jam nuts included for secure spindle positioning.

This spindle assembly fits manually operated toggle clamps in production, fabrication, and assembly line environments. It is suited for applications where a replaceable, soft-tipped contact point is needed to protect part surfaces while maintaining consistent clamping force. The neoprene flat tip cap handles repeated contact cycles and is rated for a minimum operating temperature of -22 degrees F, making it suitable for use in cold shop environments and light industrial settings.

Key Features

• 8-32 threaded carbon steel spindle body for standard toggle clamp compatibility
• Flat neoprene tip cap with 0.44-inch tip surface diameter and 70 to 80A hardness for workpiece protection
• 1-inch overall length with 17.53 mm thread length for compact spindle geometry
• Jam nuts included for secure spindle depth adjustment and locking
• Rated for minimum operating temperature of -22 degrees F
• Tip maximum diameter of 0.53 inches for adequate cap retention and contact surface area

Compatibility

Designed for use with manually operated toggle clamps requiring an 8-32 threaded spindle assembly with a replaceable cap tip contact point.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by threading the spindle into the toggle clamp body to the desired contact depth and locking position with the included jam nuts. Verify thread engagement is adequate before applying clamping force. No special tools are required beyond standard wrenches sized for the jam nut height of 0.13 inches. Inspect the neoprene tip cap periodically for wear and replace as needed to maintain consistent part contact.
