De-sta-co 235319 Cone Tip Spindle Cap 3/8-16 Polyurethane

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 235319 is a screw-on replacement cap designed for standard clamp spindle assemblies in industrial toggle clamping applications. The cap features a cone tip profile and is molded from polyurethane at Shore 80A hardness, giving it resistance to abrasion and moderate chemical exposure while protecting workpiece surfaces during clamping. It threads directly onto a 3/8-16 spindle, with an overall length of 0.94 inches, a hole diameter of 0.63 inches, and a hole depth of 0.63 inches. The maximum outer diameter is 0.8071 inches. Maintenance technicians and tooling specialists install this cap as a direct field replacement when the original tip wears or is damaged.

This cap is suited for use on standard 3/8-inch diameter spindles found on toggle clamps in fixture, jig, and workholding setups across light manufacturing, welding, and assembly operations. The cone tip geometry concentrates clamping force at a defined contact point, making it appropriate for locating against irregular or angled surfaces. It is installed in both production floor and maintenance shop environments where clamp spindle tips experience routine wear.

Key Features

• Cone tip shape for concentrated, precise clamping contact on irregular surfaces
• Polyurethane construction at Shore 80A hardness for abrasion resistance and workpiece protection
• 3/8-16 screw-on thread for direct spindle installation without tools beyond hand tightening
• 0.94-inch overall length fits standard spindle assembly depth requirements
• Rated for minimum operating temperature of -70 degrees F, suitable for cold environment applications
• Sold individually as a single replacement unit

Compatibility

Designed as a direct replacement cap for standard 3/8-inch diameter clamp spindles using 3/8-16 thread. Verify spindle diameter and thread specification before ordering.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by tooling maintenance technicians or machine operators. Before replacing the cap, relieve any clamping force and ensure the toggle clamp is in the open, unlocked position. Thread the cap onto the spindle by hand until fully seated. Inspect the mating spindle threads for wear or damage before installing the replacement cap to ensure proper engagement.
