Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What other variants of Destaco spindles are available on Raptor Supplies?
A. Raptor Supplies offers Destaco spindles in variants such as flat tip neoprene spindles, padded swivel foot spindles, hex head spindles, and round bonded & cone-tip bonded neoprene spindles.
Q. Does Destaco offer spindles having stainless steel construction?
A. Yes, these Destaco spindles are also available in stainless steel variants to provide corrosion-free performance & enhanced service life. Request a quote for these spindles on Raptor Supplies.
Q. What is the difference between flat tip bonded spindles and swivel foot spindles?
A. The flat tip bonded spindles reduce marking on fragile or polished surfaces while swivel foot spindles are used where a large area needs to be clamped.
Q. What does clamping force mean?
A. Clamping force is the amount of force actually applied to the 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. What does holding capacity signify 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 manufacturing processes.
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.
