De-sta-co 2002-U Toggle Clamp Vertical 600 Lb U-bar

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 2002-U is a manual hold-down toggle clamp designed for vertical clamping applications in production, fabrication, and assembly environments. Built from carbon steel with a zinc finish coating, it delivers a 600 lb (2670 N) holding capacity through a straight, red-handled mechanism with 66 degrees of handle movement and 75 degrees of bar opening. The U-bar design with fixed spindle provides positive workpiece engagement, while the flanged base allows secure six-hole mounting on fixtures, jigs, and work-holding surfaces. Licensed trades and production floor technicians use this clamp where repeatable, tool-free clamping force is required.

The 2002-U is suited for light industrial and manufacturing fixture applications where a compact vertical clamp profile is needed. Its flanged base spans 1.52 inches in width and includes six mounting holes at 0.22 inches in diameter, making it compatible with standard fixture plate layouts. The clamp includes flanged washers and a spindle assembly with an M6x1.0 thread. With an overall length of 4.27 inches and overall height of 4.72 inches, it fits in space-constrained tooling setups.

Key Features

• 600 lb holding capacity with maximum mechanical advantage of 5:1 and 11:1
• Vertical U-bar configuration with 75-degree bar opening for easy workpiece loading
• 66-degree handle movement for quick, positive locking action
• Fixed spindle with M6x1.0 thread for adjustable clamping height
• Zinc-finish carbon steel construction for durability in shop environments
• Includes flanged washers and spindle assembly

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style manual toggle clamp for use on standard fixture plates, jigs, and work-holding assemblies requiring a vertical hold-down configuration with a flanged base mount.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by tooling technicians or machinists mounting the clamp to a fixture plate or welding jig. Secure all six mounting holes using fasteners appropriate to the base plate material before applying clamping loads. Verify spindle thread engagement and bar clearance over the workpiece before locking the handle. Do not exceed the rated 600 lb holding capacity.
