Geisler Clamps

GEISLER WALKING BEAM CLAMP

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

MAXIMUM LINE PRESSURE AIR:      150 P.S.I.      OIL: 250 P.S.I.
Walking beam clamps can be bottom mounted by means of four tapped holes provided in base of cylinder.
For top mounting, order appropriate sub-plate from those listed in sub-plate table below.

*POWER FACTOR: SUBSTITUTE IN FORMULA TO DETERMINE MAXIMUM CLAMPING PRESSURE.
¡MAXIMUM HOLDING CAPACITY IN LOCKED POSITION WITH SPINDLE MOUNTED NEAR END OF BAR
Note: Use filter-lubricator with all air operated clamps. 
Formula to determine approximate maximum clamping pressure at spindle of walking beam and knuckle action clamps in full lock-up position.

Clamp Features

• Compact rugged construction -- cylinder and clamp are an integral welded unit-- piston rod is hard chrome plated for longer wear
• Superior clamping force in minimum space -- eliminates over-the-center lock-up losses in holding pressure common with ordinary toggle action clamps
• Easy "on the job" cylinder maintenance when required -- only two standard 0-ring seals to replace
• Double action cylinder for positive reliable operation - cant jam or hang up -- will hold clamp bar in locked position even if air supply fails
• Maybe mounted in any position -- provisions for porting from either side lend versatility
• Restricted porting provides smooth shock-free action
• Cold rolled steel clamp bar may be drilled, tapped, machined, or welded to suit any application
• Available models for air operation up to a maximum of 150 P.S.I. and for oil operation up to a maximum of 250 P.S.I.
• Well suited to automated fixture design THE REVOLUTIONARY "WALKING BEAM” MODEL OFFERS ALL OF THE ABOVE FEATURES PLUS:
• Excellent mechanical advantage on final lock-up. Actual clamping pressures up to five times line pressure on the small model and up to ten times line pressure with the larger model.
