Toggle clamps - Latch series
The circular movement of the control lever is transformed into linear movement of the rod. This series is mostly used to fasten hinged lids and for containers. Available with forces from 160 to 1000 daN, and in the heavy series from 1700 to 4000 daN. The push bars can be adjusted within the stroke (height D). The main features of the different models are:
FOR T - TF – TL – TFL - T2 MODELS: • Support base parallel to the force line of action. • In the closed position, the control lever is parallel to the support base.
FOR T3 MODELS: • Support base perpendicular to the force line of action. • In the closed position, the control lever is parallel to the support base.
FOR T4 MODELS: • Support base perpendicular to the force line of action. • In the closed position, the control lever is perpendicular to the support base.
FOR T5 – T6 MODELS: • If the tool must be used on machines or with applications in the presence of strong stress or vibrations, in which an accidental and undesired opening is likely, it is necessary to ensure a secure grip by means of a latch.
FOR E MODELS: • The ET and EG models allow safe clamping in mainly static uses, while the ETL and EGL models can operate even in the presence of strong vibrations thanks to the safety lever against accidental opening.
