Workholding Clamps

John Henry Foster represents Destaco's wide range of clamping solutions. These clamps are primarily used in industrial applications for holding workpieces securely in place during machining, welding, assembly, or other processes. They come in various types and configurations to suit different applications feature robust construction and adjustable mechanisms for precise positioning and gripping.

Some common types of workholding clamps include:

Toggle clamps: These clamps use a lever mechanism to apply pressure and hold objects in place. They are often used for quick and easy clamping of workpieces to fixtures or worktables.

Pneumatic clamps: These clamps utilize compressed air to apply clamping force, making them suitable for automated or high-speed production environments where rapid clamping and releasing are necessary.

Hydraulic clamps: Similar to pneumatic clamps, hydraulic clamps use hydraulic fluid to generate clamping force. They are often used in heavy-duty applications where higher clamping forces are required.

Vertical clamps: These clamps are designed to hold workpieces vertically, typically used in applications such as welding or assembly where securing parts in a vertical orientation is necessary.

Horizontal clamps: These clamps are designed to hold workpieces horizontally, commonly used in machining operations or assembly lines where parts need to be held flat against a surface.

Workholding clamps are popular choices in various industries such as automotive, aerospace, manufacturing, and woodworking.
