World’s Only! Twin Lever Link Clamps

Twin Lever Link Clamps are mechanical clamping devices that use a dual–lever linkage system to generate high clamping force with minimal input motion, providing precise, repeatable clamping in machining, welding, fabrication, assembly, and automated production environments.

• High clamping force with minimal hydraulic input.
• Controlled arc motion for precise part engagement.
• Load–equalizing mechanism for uniform clamping when surfaces vary up to 0.060″.
• 360° rotary lug positioning for ideal plumbing and orientation.
• Two mounting styles: top flange or cartridge.
• Compact footprint for crowded fixtures.

Ideal for:  CNC machining fixtures and milling, drilling, and tapping.

NEW! Pressure Confirmation Cylinder

The Pressure Confirmation Cylinder provides a simple, wire–free method for detecting hydraulic circuit pressure on decoupled pallets using the machine’s existing CNC touch probe. It converts hydraulic pressure into a measurable piston height so the machine can confirm pressure without electrical integration.

• Detects hydraulic pressure without wires, sensors, or electronics.
• Uses the machine’s existing CNC probe — no additional tooling.
• Ideal for decoupled pallets, rotating pallets, and multi–circuit systems.
• Installs directly into any SAE 4 port.
• Compact enough for small pallets.
• Lower cost than wireless pressure–confirmation alternative.

Ideal for:  Decoupled hydraulic fixtures, pallet pools, and HMC/VMC probing routines.
