Hertel CH-36010 Straight Line Action Clamp 800 Lb

Product Description

The HERTEL CH-36010 is a standard straight line action clamp designed for workholding and fixturing applications in machining, fabrication, and assembly environments. It delivers 800 lb of holding capacity through a round plunger with 1.6063 inches of travel, making it suitable for repetitive clamping cycles where consistent force and positioning are required. The flanged base with four mounting holes provides a stable, secure footprint on fixture plates and workbenches. Constructed from steel with a zinc finish coating, the CH-36010 is built for durability in shop conditions. A straight, horizontally oriented red handle with 180 degrees of movement allows fast, single-motion actuation.

This clamp is suited for use in production fixturing, jig building, and manual workholding setups in both job shop and production environments. The flanged base mount is compatible with standard fixture plates and tooling plates. The included spindle and two nuts allow for adjustment to accommodate workpiece height variations. Licensed machinists, toolmakers, and fixture builders are the typical installers of this type of clamp.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by toolmakers or fixture builders using standard hand tools. Secure all four mounting bolts through the flanged base before applying any clamping load. Verify plunger thread engagement and spindle adjustment before putting the clamp into production use. Inspect the plunger, spindle, and nuts periodically for wear when the clamp is used in high-cycle applications.
