De-sta-co 802-U Pneumatic Hold Down Toggle Clamp

Product Description

The DE-STA-CO 802-U is a pneumatic hold down toggle clamp designed for workholding applications in industrial and manufacturing environments. Actuated by compressed air at a maximum operating pressure of 145 psi (10 bar), it delivers an inner holding capacity of 200 pounds (890 N) and an outer clamping force of 234 pounds (1045 N). The clamp features a solid bar with a 102-degree opening arc and a 1/8 NPT air port for direct inline plumbing. A flat-tip bonded neoprene spindle is included. Licensed trades and fixture builders working in fabrication, assembly, and machining environments are the typical installers of this hardware.

The 802-U is suited for horizontal mounting on jigs, fixtures, and production tooling where repeatable pneumatic clamping is required. The 1/8 NPT port integrates with standard shop air circuits. With an overall closed length of 7.69 inches and an overall closed height of 2.55 inches, it fits into compact fixture envelopes. The clamp is compatible with round and T-slot sensor configurations for automated cycle detection, making it a practical choice for semi-automated or fully automated fixture setups.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by industrial fixture builders or maintenance technicians familiar with pneumatic circuit assembly. Depressurize the air supply before connecting or disconnecting the 1/8 NPT port. Verify that the supply circuit does not exceed the 145 psi maximum rated operating pressure. Secure mounting hardware through the 0.22-inch mounting holes and confirm horizontal orientation before pressurizing the system.
