| Toggle Action: |
|
The theoretical maximum holding
or clamping force of a toggle action device is achieved when the
three pivot points are in a straight line. To make allowance for
external forces due to vibration and changing load conditions in
industrial use, the proper amount of over travel of the center pivot
point has been carefully calculated to yield maximum clamping pressure,
while achieving a positive locking position.

| Holding Capacity And Clamping Force: |
|
All Good Hand clamps are
rated by their "holding capacity". This rating is the maximum force
the clamp will support when locked in the closed position without
creating permanent deformation. This force is measured at a point
closest to the base and diminishes as the end of the bar is reached.
The "clamping force" is defined as the actual force being applied
by the clamp to the work piece. This rating is not constant due
to such variables as the location of force on the handle, the amount
of force the operator applies, and the location of the spindle on
the hold-down bar.
