Toggle clamp is a simple Mechanism which holds instantly. The Toggle Clamps Consist of a handle to operate, a Clamping Arm to Reach the work piece, linkages for multiplying the applied force, and a base for mounting at the workplace on it’s base. The handle is operated which thereby moves the clamping arm to hold the work piece. A required clamping force is achieved and exerted on the work piece. Under this action the Toggle Clamp Holds the work piece firmly and positively. Holding Capacity : The holding capacity mentioned for each clamp refers to the maximum force, which the clamp can withstand after being over-centered without damage to the clamp and without the toggle unlocking due to distortion of the clamp. The over-center dimension is carefully chosen in relation to the elasticity of the clamp to maximize clamping force while ensuring that the clamp locks closed even under vibration or intermittent loading. For Hold Down Clamps, holding capacity is measured with the spindle at the farthest end of the clamping arm and will increase as the sp Clamping Force : Clamping Force, the amount of force actually applied to the work piece by closing and locking the clamp, is generally less than the stated holding capacity. Actual clamping force depends on many factors including; spindle position, proper spindle height adjustment, spindle cushioning, work piece material and the clamps mechanical advantage. In most cases, roughly 1/3rd of the stated holding capacity can be applied by hand with medium effort.

From the regular household appliances we use in our day to day life to the high tech gizmos we use have a common component in them – A   Fastener . Fasteners play a vital role in our day to day life. Be it from, holding the chairs and tables we sit on; be it the automobiles we travel; every inch of what we use is held in place by means of a Fastener. The basis of a fastener is basically a screw thread. - The male part is basically the screw with an external thread and the female part is a hole with an internal thread. The female part can also be a nut. Here are some ways by which a fastened joint can be created. - Based on the application area of the fastener, the head portion of the fastener is available in various shapes and sizes Here is a short list of materials used for manufacturing of Fasteners: -  Carbon steel : This is the most commonly used material for fasteners. - Alloy Steel - Stainless Steel - Inconel Stainless steel - Titanium: This is mostly used in aircraft application fasteners. - Aluminium: This is used in areas of very light loads and application requiring reduction in weight. Apart from using the above materials as fasteners, certain types of coatings are also provided on the fasteners in order to improve their performance characteristics. The main purpose of coating is to improve the corrosion resistance characteristics of the fasteners. The various types of coatings available for the fasteners are -  Cadmium Plating : used mainly for aerospace applications - Zinc Plating - Phosphate Plating - Chromium plating - Silver Plating - Black Oxidizing - Nickel plating. At Industrial Tools Agency, we cater to varying fastener needs of our customers.Be it a standard fastener, Or a special fastener, we do it all!
