Destaco straight line action clampsfeature handles to move a plunger along its axis during fixturing, testing, CNC machining & plastic injection moulding applications. These clamps can be locked either in two positions (extended and retracted position) for allowing them to act as both pull or push clamps or only in the extended position. Destaco 606 Series clamps can lock only in the extended position using a handle & linkage that swivel 125 degrees for mounting & operational flexibility. These clamps are made of steel for structural integrity & durability to prevent breaking / damaging under heavy loads. Destaco 606 straight line action clamp has an imperial threaded plunger for attaching an imperial threaded spindle to push against a workpiece. It also has a narrow flange base for secure installation on compact spaces, flat surfaces or workpieces. Raptor Supplies can also deliver Destaco 606-M straight line action clamp having similar specifications as Destaco 606 clamp and a metric threaded plunger for holding workpieces using metric threaded spindles.

Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What other variants of Destaco 606 manual clamp are available on Raptor Supplies?
A. Raptor Supplies can deliver a similar clamp, Destaco 606-M clamp featuring M8 (metric) threaded plunger for attaching metric threaded spindles.
Q. How does a straight line action clamp work?
A. A straight line action clamp is operated manually using a rotatable handle to push or pull a plunger with an attached spindle against the workpiece and prevent it from moving mid-operation, thereby ensuring secure clamping.
Q. Does the red colour of the clamp handle denote anything on Destaco clamps?
A. The red coloured handles alert the user about the location of the operating handle and when he should grab it. The red colour has no additional advantage to the working of the clamps.
Q. What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?
A. The term "holding capacity" or the holding force indicates the ideal capability of the clamp to hold down the equipment, workpiece or sheet metal on the assembly line or during other manufacturing processes.
Q. How is clamping force different from the holding force / capacity?
A. Clamping force or exerting force denotes the actual force exerted by the clamp onto the workpieces for holding them. The measure of holding force or capacity indicates the ideal strength of the clamp measured during the clamp manufacturing process. The clamping force is generally lesser than the holding capacity due to several factors, such as the position of spindles in the clamping bars and the opposing force applied on the clamp.
Q. Can the red handles of the Destaco clamps be removed?
A. Most of the Destaco clamps feature grips that can be easily removed by sliding them off. But some of the handle grips undergo vinyl dipping to fit the underlying handle and hence, have to be cut off for removing them.
Q. Does Destaco supply customised or special versions of their clamps according to applications?
A. Destaco can supply customised versions of clamps upon request. The customisations can range from a different colour of handles to the removal of the Destaco logo from the clamps.
Q. Are Destaco clamps corrosion resistant?
A. All Destaco carbon steel clamps are zinc plated to resist wear & tear due to harsh industrial environments and provide rust resistance. Destaco also supplies stainless steel clamps for applications requiring clamping in outdoor conditions.
