CL-400-PTC
Open Arm
Super-compact air clamp for applications where space is at a premium. Similar to a wide-opening vertical-handle toggle clamp, except operated by an air cylinder instead of by hand. Toggle linkage provides high holding capacity and ensures positive mechanical locking even if air pressure fails. Clamping arm opens 100°. The slotted open arm provides adjustable spindle location. 100 lbs holding capacity. Made in the USA.
This clamp is operated by a 3/4"-bore double-acting air cylinder, with Buna-N seals for -20° to +200°F operating temperature. Two #10-32 ports. 100-psi maximum input air pressure exerts 100 lbs maximum clamping force at the center of the arm.
CL-400-PTC-MPD - Open Arm, with Position Sensing
This clamp is optionally available with position-sensing capability, incorporating a special air cylinder with a magnetic piston ring. This allows monitoring cylinder position with a Hall-effect switch. Order Hall-effect switch separately (see Related Products below).
Supplied with #10-32 flat-cushion spindle CL-316112-FC and (2) CL-3166-TW flanged washers. For alternative clamping spindles, see Related Products below.
To order the miniature fittings required for #10-32 ports, or to order an optional bracket for 90° mounting, see Related Products below.
