De-sta-co 800-E Air Hold Down Clamp 1200 Lb

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 800-E is a pneumatically operated hold down clamp rated for 1,200 pounds of holding capacity and 150 psi clamping pressure. It is designed for securing workpieces on fixtures, jigs, and work surfaces where consistent, repeatable clamping force is required. Air actuation replaces manual lever operation, reducing fatigue and cycle time in production environments. The clamp body measures 4.81 inches in length, 2.72 inches in width, and 1.63 inches in height, with a compact profile suited for tight fixture layouts. The arm length is 0.5 inches and the maximum opening capacity is 0.1575 inches. Machinists, welders, and assembly technicians install this type of clamp in industrial and manufacturing settings.

The 800-E is well suited for assembly, light machining, and welding applications where pneumatic clamping is preferred over toggle or manual alternatives. Its mounting hole pattern allows direct bolting to fixture plates, tombstones, or welding tables. The compact clamp height of 1.63 inches keeps the unit low-profile, making it practical in multi-clamp fixture arrangements where clearance is limited. This model is appropriate for both production-line and job-shop environments requiring reliable hold-down force at standard shop air pressures.

Compatibility

Designed for use in assembly, light machining, and welding fixture applications where pneumatic hold down clamping is required. Verify fixture plate hole patterns and air supply specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified fixture builders or maintenance technicians familiar with pneumatic clamping systems. Shut off and bleed all air pressure from the supply line before mounting or adjusting the clamp. Secure all mounting fasteners to the fixture plate before connecting air lines. Confirm that shop air supply pressure does not exceed the rated clamping pressure of 150 psi during operation.
