De-sta-co 207943 Hex Tip Clamp Spindle 5/16-18 Stainless

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 207943 is a stainless steel hex head tip clamp spindle assembly designed for use with straight-line action and horizontal hold-down clamps in industrial workholding applications. The spindle features a 5/16-18 thread size with a thread length of 2.5 inches and an overall length of 2.72 inches. The hex tip surface diameter measures 0.5 inches, providing a stable contact point on the workpiece. Jam nuts are included. This assembly is installed by maintenance technicians, tooling specialists, and fixture builders working on production lines and assembly fixtures where repeatable clamping force and corrosion resistance are required.

This spindle assembly is suited for light to medium-duty straight-line action clamping setups in manufacturing, fabrication, and fixture applications. It is compatible with DE-STA-CO horizontal hold-down and straight-line action clamp bodies as a direct replacement or service component. The stainless steel construction makes it appropriate for environments where moisture, coolant exposure, or sanitation requirements make carbon steel unsuitable.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by tooling technicians or fixture maintenance personnel.
