Threaded Body VersaCam™ Swing Clamp Specifications

WARNING! Never allow swing arm to contact workpiece or fixture during arm rotation.

 ** Cylinder capacities are listed at 5,000 psi maximum operating pressure, with a standard length VektorFlo^® arm installed. Minimum operating pressure is 750 psi for single acting, 500 psi for double acting.

The clamping force is adjustable by varying the hydraulic system pressure. To determine the approximate output force for your application, divide the cylinder capacity shown above by 5000, and multiply the resultant number X Your System Operating Pressure to obtain the approximate clamping force for your application. (Actual force will vary slightly due to internal cantilever loading, friction loss, and/or return springs.)

*** To allow for piece part height variations, it is recommended that the vertical travel be set at about 50% of the vertical stroke.

**** To insure maximum service life and trouble-free operation, restrict fluid flow to the level indicated in the Clamp Time and Fluid Flow Rate chart.

All dimensions are in inches.

Threaded Body VersaCam™ Swing Clamp

Available in four capacities from 450 to 5,000lb. Standard models swing is 90° with swing angles of less than 90° available using restrictors. Swings of more than 90° are special order products. To avoid cylinder damage and preserve warranty use recommended flow rate limits and time calculations. Standard Arm Clocking feature uses standard Vektek arms. Arms sold separately.   SAE porting is all on the top of the cylinder body for easy access (bottom unclamp porting is available), no need to modify fixtures or reroute tubing to access cylinder end to unclamp. Vent port with bronze filter gives the cylinder a place to "breathe" and helps keep chips from sucking past wipers. Hardened V-cam tracks resist damage and give you a built in extra cam (opposite swing direction) or straight line option should you accidentally damage one.
