Destaco has expanded its range of horizontal and vertical toggle-lock Manual Clamp products with a front-mount-base model, which it says will give users additional flexibility and reduce interfering contours.
The front-mount option is available across four manual clamps, two of which use vertical handle action, and the other two of which use horizontal handle action. The vertical 2002-UF and 2007-UF models enlarge the space available for manual operations and improved safety. The horizontal 225-UF and 235-UF models use a flat design to create space for larger hand clearance, which improves operational safety.
All four models use the same connection-hole pattern, spindles, pin holders and bolt retainers as existing models. These clamps also have hardened brushings at key pivot points.
