Halder Down Thrust Clamps | Vertical Workholding Solutions | Freer Tool

Halder down‑thrust clamps are workholding clamps designed to apply clamping force downward into the fixture, helping resist part lift and improve stability during machining (application dependent). Down-thrust styles are commonly used in fixture building when you want strong, repeatable hold-down force while keeping the setup compact and production-friendly. They’re often used on fixture plates, tombstones, and machining centers where consistent clamp-up and clear tool access are important.
