De-sta-co 207-44 Toggle Clamp 375 Lb Vertical U-bar

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 207-44 is a manual hold-down toggle clamp designed for vertical clamping applications in industrial workholding, fixturing, and assembly operations. It delivers a holding capacity of 375 pounds (1670 N) through a straight handle with 57 degrees of handle movement and 99 degrees of bar opening. The U-bar design with a fixed spindle accepts a 5/16-18 spindle thread and provides 2.94 inches of spindle travel, making it adaptable to workpieces of varying thickness. The flanged base mounts via four holes and includes two flanged washers, two nuts, and a spindle. Construction is carbon steel with a zinc finish coating and a red handle. Machinists, tool and die technicians, and fabricators are the typical installers.

The 207-44 is suited for use on drill press fixtures, welding positioners, milling tables, and production assembly jigs where a repeatable, secure vertical hold-down is required. The flanged base provides a stable four-point mount on flat surfaces and sub-plates. With an overall length of 5.41 inches and an overall height of 6.93 inches, the clamp fits into moderately tight fixture layouts without interfering with adjacent components. The front of the base to the tip of the toggle bar measures 3.48 inches, which is useful for clearance planning during fixture design.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-use toggle clamp for standard industrial fixturing applications requiring a vertical hold-down with a flanged base and U-bar configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists or fixture builders using standard hand tools. Mount the flanged base to a flat, rigid surface using all four mounting holes to prevent rocking under load. Verify that the spindle thread engagement and bar clearance are set before fully tightening the included hardware. Always release stored energy in the workholding system before adjusting clamp position or replacing hardware.
