Frequently Asked Questions

What other variants of Destaco 385-L latch clamp are available on Raptor Supplies?

Raptor Supplies offers these manual clamps in variants having regular sized handles (385) for installation in places without space constraints. We can also deliver Destaco 385-SS clamp having stainless steel construction for corrosion reistance.

Is Destaco 385-L latch clamp offered in different hook lengths?

Destaco supplies similar latch clamps having different hook lengths of 25 mm longer than standard length (385-L-M-25), 50 mm longer than standard length (385-L-M-50) and 100 mm longer than standard hook length (385-L-M-100).

How do latch clamps work?

These pull action latch clamps has a handle to operate the tool, a clamping arm to act as a contact point between the work item & the clamp and a base to attach the clamp to the surface. Once the simple linkage system of the clamp is put in the over-centre position, the handle is moved for creating a force parallel to the base to hold the work items.

What are the benefits of using Toggle Lock Plus mechanism in Destaco manual clamps?

Many of the Destaco manual clamps come with the Toggle Lock Plus feature to act as a secondary locking mechanism and ensure the over-centre toggle lock condition of the clamps. This mechanism is essential when fixtures of the clamp are in motion, in a vibratory environment or are inverted. It offers an extra level of safety for the user and the workpiece. This manual clamp is integrated with Destaco Toggle Lock Plus feature (385-R) to prevent its accidental opening.

Which grease is recommended to be used with Destaco clamps when rebuilding?

Whenever you're dealing with the brand's mechanical clamps, it is recommended to use a coupling grease like Mobil XTC.

What does holding capacity mean in terms of clamps?

The holding capacity or the holding force depicts the clamp's capability to hold down the equipment or a sheet metal on the assembly line or during similar manufacturing processes.

What does the red colour of the handle of Destaco clamps mean?

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.

Can the red handles of the Destaco clamps be removed?

Most Destaco clamps feature grips that can be easily removed by simply sliding them off. But some handle grips undergo vinyl dipping to fit the underlying handle and hence, have to be cut off for removal.
