Pneumatic Toggle Clamps are similar in design to standard hold-down toggle clamps, but they are operated by a double-acting air cylinder rather than manually. The toggle linkage provides high holding capacity and insures positive mechanical locking even if air pressure falls. Pneumatic Toggle Clamps are optionally available with position-sensing capability, incorporating a special air cylinder with a magnetic piston ring. This allows monitoring cylinder position with either a Hall-effect switch or reed switch
Similar to Power Toggle Clamps are Air-Powered Swing Clamps. These are pneumatic versions of our popular Hydraulic Swing Clamps, for applications requiring light clamping force. The clamping arm on the pneumatic clamp swings clear for easy loading using a sturdy helical-cam mechanism operated by a double-acting air cylinder.
