De-sta-co 601 Straight Line Action Clamp 100 Lb Flanged

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 601 is a standard straight line action clamp designed for industrial workholding and fixturing applications. It delivers 100 lb (444.82 N) of clamping load through a round plunger with 0.63 inches of travel and a 0.25-inch diameter. The clamp body is constructed from carbon steel and features a flanged base with three mounting holes for secure bench, jig, or fixture installation. A red thumb handle provides manual actuation. Mechanical advantage reaches 14:1 in pushing mode and 25:1 in pulling mode, giving technicians and machinists controlled, repeatable clamping force in a compact footprint. Two nuts and a spindle are included.

This clamp is suited for light-duty straight-line clamping tasks in manufacturing, assembly, and fabrication environments. The flanged base style makes it a practical choice for flat-surface mounting on welding fixtures, drill jigs, and inspection tables. The internal plunger thread is sized at 8-32, allowing for spindle adjustment to accommodate workpiece thickness variations. The compact overall length of 2.61 inches and height of 1.27 inches allow installation in space-constrained fixtures where larger toggle clamps would not fit.

Compatibility

Designed as a standard OEM-style straight line action clamp for use in industrial workholding fixtures, jigs, and assembly tooling requiring compact, light-duty in-line clamping.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by machinists, toolmakers, or fixture technicians using standard hand tools. Mount the flanged base to a flat, rigid surface using fasteners through the three mounting holes before applying any clamping load. Adjust the spindle to the correct height for the workpiece before securing the locking nuts. Ensure the mounting surface and fasteners are rated for the applied clamping force.
