Range of
Toggle clamps

Vertical clamps

Operating handle and clamping lever move in the same direction.
In the clamping position the operating handle is in vertical position.
Vertical clamps are available for holding forces FH from 700 N to 30 000 N.

Horizontal clamps
Operating handle and clamping arm move in opposite direction.
In the clamped position the operating handle is in horizontal position
(flat version).
Horizontal clamps are available for holding forces FH from 250 N up to 4500 N.

Push-Pull clamps
On these clamps the swinging movement of the operating handle is converted into an axial movement to push or pull the plunger.
With the exception of 2 versions (GN 841) they lock at the end of their stroke in both directions. For this reason they lend themselves for push or pull operations.
Push-pull clamps are available for holding forces FH from 500 N up to 31 000 N.

Hook clamps
On these clamps the swinging movement of the operating handle is converted into an axial movement to pull the hook.
Hook clamps are mainly used for closing of vents or lids on containers.
Hook clamps are available for holding forces FH from 1600 N up to 28 000 N.

Pneumatically operated clamps
These toggle clamps combine the advantages of clamping by the toggle principle (clamp remains in the clamping position even in the event of air pressure loss!) with the advantages offered by pneumatics i.e.:
constant clamping force Fs independent of the operator,
several clamps can be operated simultaneously (via a 4-way valve),
Pneumatically operated clamps can be energised from various operating points (remote control, co-ordinated and controlled by other machines),
some variants are available with an air cylinder which allows control via a proximity switch, to give an electrical impulse when the clamp has reached a specific position within its clamping cycle.
Pneumatically operated clamps are available as vertical and push rod version for clamping forces Fs from 500 N up to 6000 N (min. force at 4 bar) and holding forces from 700 N to 25 000 N.
Installation drawings
For all toggle clamps we can supply installation drawings (scale 1:1). They are available free of charge on request.
