De-sta-co 375 Pull-action Latch Clamp 4000 Lb U-hook

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 375 is a horizontal pull-action latch clamp rated for 4,000 pounds of load capacity. It uses a U-Hook bar style to generate clamping force through a pulling motion, making it well suited for hold-down and latch applications where a toggle-style clamp is not practical. The body and base are constructed from carbon steel for durability in industrial and production environments. Key dimensional details include a 10.19-inch overall length, a 4.19-inch overall height, and a 3.5-inch drawing movement. A straight red handle and a patented thumb control lever are included for positive engagement and quick release.

This clamp is designed for horizontal clamping orientations in manufacturing, fabrication, welding, and fixture-building applications. The flanged base allows direct bolting to flat tooling plates, jigs, or fixture frames. The threaded U-Hook is included and adjustable, allowing the operator to fine-tune clamp tension at the point of contact. This model is appropriate for production lines, assembly fixtures, and tooling stations where repeatable pull-force clamping is required. Installation is typically performed by machine builders, tool-and-die technicians, or maintenance mechanics.

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style pull-action latch clamp for use in industrial fixtures, jigs, and tooling applications requiring horizontal clamping with a flanged mounting base.

Installation Notes

Install using bolts through the flanged base mounting holes, torquing fasteners to the fixture plate specifications for the application. Ensure the mounting surface is flat and free of debris before securing the base. Adjust the threaded U-Hook to achieve proper clamping tension before putting the fixture into production use. De-energize or lock out any associated power sources on automated fixtures before servicing or adjusting the clamp.
