De-sta-co 247208 Cap Tip Clamp Spindle Assembly 1/2-13

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 247208 is a cap tip clamp spindle assembly designed for use with manually operated toggle clamps in industrial workholding and fixturing applications. The spindle is machined from carbon steel and features a 1/2-13 thread size with an overall length of 3.87 inches. The flat cap tip is molded from neoprene with a Shore hardness rating of 70-80A, providing firm, controlled contact on workpieces without marring surfaces. Jam nuts are included for precise tip height adjustment. This assembly is installed by maintenance technicians and manufacturing fixture specialists working on production clamping systems.

The 247208 spindle assembly is suited for light to medium-duty manual toggle clamp setups found in fabrication, assembly, and machining fixture applications. It provides a replaceable contact point that can be adjusted along the spindle thread to accommodate varying workpiece thicknesses. The neoprene flat cap tip distributes clamping load across a 1.18-inch tip surface diameter, helping protect finished or coated part surfaces during clamping. Compatible with manually operated clamps requiring a 1/2-13 threaded spindle interface.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by maintenance technicians or fixture assemblers using standard hand tools. Disengage and de-energize any pneumatic or mechanical clamping system before servicing spindle components. Thread the spindle to the desired height and secure position using the included jam nuts to prevent movement during clamping cycles. Verify tip surface contact and clamp travel are correct before returning the fixture to service.
