De-sta-co 202-UB Toggle Clamp Vertical 200 Lb U-bar

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 202-UB is a manual hold-down toggle clamp designed for vertical clamping applications requiring a rated holding capacity of 200 pounds (890 N). Built from carbon steel with a zinc finish coating, it features a straight handle, U-Bar bar style with a fixed spindle end, and a straight base configuration. The 202-UB is sized at 3.46 inches overall length and 4.78 inches overall height, making it well suited for benchtop fixtures, jigs, and workholding setups where a compact, low-profile clamp is required. Licensed trades and skilled fabricators install this clamp to secure workpieces during machining, welding, and assembly operations.

The 202-UB is used in light- to medium-duty industrial and manufacturing environments. Its vertical handle orientation and straight base allow direct mounting to fixture plates, worktables, and jig assemblies. The fixed spindle with a 1/4-20 thread size and 0.98 inch spindle travel provides precise, repeatable clamping pressure. The clamp is supplied with two flanged washers, two nuts, and a spindle, giving the installer all necessary hardware for a standard mount. Typical applications include production line fixtures, quality inspection jigs, and welding positioners.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hold-down toggle clamp for use in fixture, jig, and workholding applications requiring a vertical, straight-base, U-Bar clamp with a 1/4-20 spindle thread.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, fixture builders, or maintenance technicians using standard hand tools. Before mounting, ensure the base plate or fixture surface is clean, flat, and capable of supporting the clamp load. Secure the clamp through all four mounting holes using appropriately rated fasteners; use the included flanged washers and nuts on the spindle assembly per the manufacturer assembly sequence. Adjust the fixed spindle to the required clamping height before final tightening to ensure consistent over-center lock engagement.
