Vektek’s TuffCam™ Low Profile Swing Clamps meet your demand for speed, precise positioning, heavy arm applications and/or clamping capacity up to 7,500 lbs. These Low Profile tri-cam design clamps, with their exclusive Cam Follower Seat, can position and clamp in one second or less and handle large arms with ease. Each clamp includes the Clocking feature that dramatically reduces the time it takes to change arms for maintenance, replacement or fixture setup. One of the keys to this TuffCam™ innovation is the Cam Follower Ball Seat that was developed to improve strength and wear. Using the Vektek patented V-Groove technology, tungsten carbide ball material for strength and wear and a stainless steel spring, these clamps have reduced static friction for improved clamp breakaway and extended life.
