De-sta-co 2007208-M M8 Cap Tip Clamp Spindle Assembly

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 2007208-M is an M8 threaded cap tip clamp spindle assembly designed for use with manual-operated toggle clamps in industrial workholding applications. Machined from carbon steel, the spindle provides a durable threaded body with a flat neoprene tip cap rated at 80-85A durometer hardness, which protects workpiece surfaces from marring during clamping. The assembly measures 2.48 inches overall length with a tip surface diameter of 0.83 inches, and ships complete with jam nuts for secure positioning. Licensed industrial maintenance technicians and assembly line setup personnel are the typical installers of this component.

This spindle assembly is used wherever a toggle clamp requires a replaceable cap tip spindle - common in light manufacturing, fixture building, metal fabrication, and assembly jig maintenance. The flat neoprene tip cap is well suited for clamping finished or coated surfaces where a softer contact point is required. The M8 thread size and 2.48-inch overall length make this a standard spindle format found across a wide range of manually operated toggle clamp bodies. The minimum operating temperature is rated at -22 degrees F, making it viable in refrigerated or cold-process environments.

Key Features

• M8 carbon steel threaded spindle body for strength and corrosion resistance in dry industrial settings
• Flat neoprene tip cap at 80-85A durometer protects finished workpiece surfaces during clamping
• 2.48-inch overall length with 0.83-inch tip surface diameter for standard toggle clamp fitment
• Includes jam nuts for precise spindle height adjustment and lockdown
• Rated to -22 degrees F minimum operating temperature for cold-environment use
• Tip maximum diameter of 0.55 inches with nut height of 0.16 inches for compact clearance

Compatibility

Designed for use with manually operated toggle clamps requiring an M8 threaded cap tip spindle assembly. Refer to your toggle clamp manufacturer specifications to confirm M8 thread compatibility before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians or fixture builders familiar with toggle clamp hardware. Power down or de-energize any automated equipment associated with the clamp fixture before servicing. Thread the spindle into the clamp body by hand, then use the included jam nuts to lock the spindle at the desired extension height - do not overtighten jam nuts against the clamp body without confirming thread engagement. Inspect the neoprene tip cap for seating and alignment before returning the clamp to service.
