De-sta-co 240208 Cap Tip Clamp Spindle Assembly 3/8-16

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 240208 is a cap tip clamp spindle assembly designed for use with manual-operated toggle clamps. The spindle is constructed from carbon steel and features a flat neoprene cap tip rated at 70-80A hardness. Thread size is 3/8-16, with an overall length of 3.25 inches and a tip surface diameter of 1.02 inches. The assembly includes jam nuts and is sized for precise workholding pressure delivery in fixture and clamping applications. Licensed HVAC, tooling, and assembly professionals working with toggle clamp setups will find this a direct-fit service component for worn or damaged spindle assemblies.

The 240208 spindle assembly is intended for use with manual-operated toggle clamps in industrial, tooling, and fixture applications. The flat neoprene cap tip protects workpiece surfaces while maintaining firm contact. With a tip maximum diameter of 0.79 inches and a nut height of 0.22 inches, the assembly fits standard toggle clamp spindle bores where 3/8-16 threaded spindles are specified. Minimum operating temperature is -22 degrees F, making it suitable for cold-environment production or maintenance settings.

Compatibility

Designed for use with manual-operated toggle clamps requiring a 3/8-16 threaded spindle assembly with a flat cap tip configuration.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by tooling technicians or fixture maintenance personnel. Remove or de-energize any pneumatic or mechanical force on the clamp before servicing the spindle. Thread the spindle to the desired contact depth, then tighten the included jam nuts to lock position. Avoid over-torquing the jam nuts against the clamp body casting, as this can crack the housing.
