DESCRIPTION
The Planet Horizontal toggle clamps are a great choice for applications with height restrictions. When the handle is closed, they have a low profile design. The arm and handle geometry feature opposite axis directions, and they offer a high holding capacity relative to their size, making them perfect for workshops where space is at a premium. With these clamps, you can easily create jigs for woodworking tasks like routing and milling.
Features:
- A red vinyl hand grip with a cushioned rib profile enhances user comfort.
- All body and linkage components are zinc plated to prevent corrosion.
- Pivot points are equipped with hardened steel or stainless steel rivets for a long service life.
- Clamps with adjustable spindles have a formed end on the arm to secure the spindle if it loosens during operation.
- The handle and arm linkages ensure a smooth and continuous action when opening and closing the handle.

Using your Planet Horizontal Toggle Clamp is easy. First, place the clamp where you need it for your woodworking task, like routing or milling. Then, close the handle to hold your workpiece firmly in place. The 90° arm opening and 65° handle opening give you enough range to work with.
When using, be careful not to apply more force than the 227Kg holding capacity. This will keep the clamp working well and prevent damage.
For maintenance, keep the clamp clean. The zinc plating on the body and linkage components helps resist corrosion, but wiping it down regularly can extend its life. Check the pivot points with hardened steel or stainless - steel rivets from time to time. If you have a clamp with an adjustable spindle, make sure the formed end of the arm is keeping the spindle secure. And enjoy the comfort of the red vinyl hand grip with the cushioned rib profile while you work.
