De-sta-co 468206 Swivel Foot Clamp Spindle 3/8-16

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 468206 is a swivel foot tip clamp spindle assembly designed for use with toggle clamps in industrial clamping applications. Machined from carbon steel, the spindle features a 3/8-16 threaded shaft with a thread length of 1.92 inches and an overall length of 3.06 inches. The flat tip cap swivels up to 24 degrees to conform to angled workpiece surfaces, providing consistent contact pressure. Jam nuts are included for secure spindle height adjustment. This assembly is sized for trade and industrial users who need a durable, field-adjustable clamping component.

The 468206 spindle assembly is suited for workholding fixtures, jigs, and production tooling where toggle clamps are used to secure parts during machining, welding, or assembly operations. The swivel foot tip accommodates slight surface variations without requiring a perfectly flat clamping surface. The 0.63-inch tip surface diameter distributes clamping force across a defined contact area, reducing marking on finished workpieces. This component is typically installed by toolmakers, fixture builders, and maintenance technicians working in manufacturing or fabrication environments.

Key Features

• 3/8-16 threaded spindle shaft for standard toggle clamp compatibility
• Carbon steel construction for durability in production tooling applications
• 24-degree swivel range allows tip to conform to angled or uneven workpiece surfaces
• Flat tip cap with 0.63-inch tip surface diameter for defined contact area
• Jam nuts included for field adjustment and secure spindle lock
• Overall length of 3.06 inches with 1.92-inch thread length for reach flexibility

Compatibility

Designed for use with toggle clamps requiring a 3/8-16 threaded spindle assembly. Confirm thread size and clamp spindle bore before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is performed by toolmakers or maintenance technicians. Before servicing or installing spindle assemblies on active fixtures, ensure the clamping system is fully released and the workpiece is clear. Thread the spindle to the desired clamping depth and secure the jam nuts firmly against the clamp body to prevent spindle movement under load. Verify the swivel foot seats flush against the workpiece contact surface before production use.
