De-sta-co 206-HSS Toggle Clamp Horizontal 100 Lb U-bar

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 206-HSS is a manual hold-down toggle clamp with a horizontal handle orientation, designed to secure workpieces during machining, welding, assembly, and fixture operations. Built from stainless steel with a zinc finish coating, this clamp delivers a 100 lb (440 N) holding capacity in a compact form factor measuring 2.74 inches in overall length and 1.06 inches in overall height. The U-bar design with a fixed spindle end provides consistent downward clamping pressure, and the straight red handle moves through 90 degrees to lock and release with minimal effort. Machinists, fabricators, and fixture builders install this clamp where repeatable part positioning and quick-release clamping are required.

The 206-HSS is suited for light-duty workholding applications on jigs, fixtures, and production tooling in both job-shop and production environments. Its flanged base mounts via four holes arranged on a 0.63 inch center-to-center spacing in both length and width, allowing direct bolt-down to fixture plates, machine tables, and fabricated steel frames. The included hardware package consists of one spindle, two nuts, and two washers, providing everything needed for initial installation without additional fastener sourcing.

Key Features

• 100 lb (440 N) holding capacity for light-duty workholding and fixture applications
• Stainless steel construction throughout handle and clamp body with zinc finish coating

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-mount hold-down toggle clamp for standard jig and fixture applications requiring a horizontal-handle, flanged-base, U-bar clamp with 8-32 spindle thread.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or fixture builders using standard hand tools. Power down or de-energize any associated automated equipment before mounting or adjusting the clamp. Secure all four base mounting holes to the fixture surface to prevent rocking under load. Adjust spindle height using the included nuts and washers to achieve proper clamping contact before placing the clamp in service.
