Hertel CH-D202-UL Toggle Clamp Vertical 200 Lb U-bar

Product Description

The HERTEL CH-D202-UL is a manual hold-down toggle clamp with a vertical handle orientation and flanged base, designed for workholding applications in fabrication, assembly, and machining environments. It delivers a 200 lb holding capacity and features a closed-end U-bar that locks workpieces securely in place when the handle is actuated. The handle moves through 65 degrees of travel, while the bar opens 105 degrees for fast part loading and unloading. The body and bar are constructed from steel with a zinc finish coating, and the straight handle is finished in red for quick visual identification. Licensed trades, toolmakers, and production technicians install this clamp on fixtures, jigs, and workbenches.

The CH-D202-UL suits light- to medium-duty workholding on machining fixtures, welding positioners, and assembly jigs where a compact, low-profile vertical clamp is required. Its flanged base accepts four mounting holes spaced 0.5 inches lengthwise and 1.06 inches widthwise, making it straightforward to bolt onto standard fixture plates or fabricated steel bases. The zinc finish provides a basic level of corrosion resistance for shop-floor and light industrial environments.

Key Features

• 200 lb holding capacity for reliable workpiece retention during light- to medium-duty operations
• Vertical handle orientation with 65-degree handle travel for compact actuation clearance
• U-bar with closed bar end and 105-degree opening angle for quick part loading
• Flanged base with four mounting holes for rigid, positive fixture attachment
• Steel construction with zinc finish coating for shop-floor durability
• Red straight handle for fast visual identification in multi-clamp setups

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style hold-down toggle clamp for use on standard fixture plates, welding jigs, and assembly benches where a vertical, flanged-base U-bar clamp with a 200 lb capacity is required.

Installation Notes

Mounting is typically performed by a machinist, toolmaker, or fixture builder using standard drill and tap equipment. Secure the flanged base through all four mounting holes to ensure the clamp does not rock or shift under load. Verify the spindle height is adjusted so the bar makes firm, square contact with the workpiece before locking. Always confirm the toggle is fully past center and seated in the locked position before beginning any machining, welding, or assembly operation.
