De-sta-co 207-69 Toggle Clamp Vertical 375 Lb U-bar

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 207-69 is a manual hold-down toggle clamp designed for vertical clamping applications in production fixtures, welding jigs, assembly stations, and general workholding setups. It features a U-bar with a fixed spindle end and a straight handle with red grip, providing a holding capacity of 375 pounds (1,670 N). The clamp body and handle are constructed from carbon steel with a zinc finish coating for corrosion resistance. The 57-degree handle movement and 99-degree bar opening allow for quick part loading and unloading without tools. Licensed machinists, toolmakers, and fixture builders are the primary installers of this type of clamp.

This clamp is suited for light to medium-duty workholding in manufacturing and fabrication environments. The straight base mounts flat to fixture plates, welding tables, or machine beds using four mounting holes. The overall height is 7.48 inches and the overall length is 3.75 inches, making it compact enough for tight fixture layouts. The included hardware package consists of two flanged washers, two nuts, and a 5/16-18 spindle with 1.3 inches of spindle travel, giving installers direct adjustment over clamping force and height under bar.

Compatibility

Designed as a direct-mount hold-down toggle clamp for use on fixture plates, welding positioners, and assembly jigs requiring a vertical straight-base clamp with a U-bar and fixed spindle configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolmakers, fixture builders, or maintenance technicians using standard hand tools. Secure the straight base to the mounting surface using appropriately rated fasteners through all four mounting holes before applying clamping load. Verify spindle thread engagement and adjust spindle height to achieve consistent clamping pressure on the workpiece before locking down the nuts. Do not exceed the rated holding capacity of 375 lb during operation.
