Destaco 324-M-50 pull action latch clamp mounts to work surfaces and holds workpieces together. The clamp has a lever that locks a rubber stopper against the work surface to secure objects tightly for drilling, welding, milling or woodworking applications. This clamp offers a stationary alternative to removable C-clamps or spring clamps when securing material to a work surface. It comes with a lever handle that is pushed to the upright position when the clamp is engaged. This pull action latch is also supplied with a latch plate and a thumb control lever for easy one handed operation. Destaco 324-M-50 pull action latch clamp incorporates a fixed design that allows users to secure and loosen material without moving the placement of the clamp itself. It applies force in a straight line direction that allows the unit to toggle in the forward and rear positions. This is particularly useful in situations where the operator occasionally requires the clamp, rather than to push forward and apply the force, to pull forward and apply the force. It comes equipped with a handle that is appropriately aligned with the opposing latch. The handle can be pulled back down into the locking position, making it ideal for closing objects such as mold closures and latching doors.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. Is Destaco 324-M-50 pull action latch clamp ideal for applications concerning heavy forces?
A. Yes, Destaco 324-M-50 features over center toggle locking action that allows the unit the capability to withstand heavy forces such as those generated in plastic molding operations.
Q. How do latch clamps work?
A. These pull action latch clamps depend on 3 main components - a handle for operating the tool, a clamping arm for contact point between the work item & clamp, and a base for attaching the clamp to the surface. Once the simple linkage system of the clamp is put in the over-centre position, the handle is pulled horizontally for creating force parallel to the base and squeeze holding the work items.
Q. What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?
A. The holding capacity or the holding force depicts the clamp's capability to hold down equipment or sheet metal on assembly lines or during similar manufacturing processes.
Q. What is the significance of the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps?
A. There is no such significance of colour of the clamp's handle, as it only represents a recognisable area. This helps operators in finding the handle quickly & easily.
Q. Which grease is ideal for Destaco clamps for their rebuilding?
A. A coupling grease like Mobil XTC should be used when dealing with Destaco mechanical clamps, while the Magnalube G grease is great for use with pneumatic cylinder seals.
Q. What does clamping force mean?
A. Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to a workpiece by closing & locking the clamp. It is normally less than the stated holding capacity. The actual clamping force depends on various factors, including cylinder bore, cylinder area, spindle position (clamping arm length) and available air pressure. In most cases, the clamping force is approximately 2 to 3 times the force exerted by a pneumatic cylinder.
Q. Does Destaco supply any water resistant clamp sensors?
A. Yes, Destaco also supplies inductive sensors designed in accordance with IP65 standards to ensure protection from powerful hydraulic jets, dust & heavy rain.
