A new series of manual toggle clamps from DE-STA-CO are engineered for heavy-duty applications and feature forged clamping bars for high strength, hardened steel bushings and non-rotating pivot pins. They incorporate the company’s Toggle Lock Plus safety feature that adds a secondary lock to the clamp to help ensure that the over-center locking condition is maintained and protected against unintentional opening. Some models also lock the clamp in the open position. The clamps are available with weld-on or bolt-on mounting bases for versatility, in a variety of action types for a suitable wide range of applications.
