New Products: Work Supports

TUFFGRIP™ WORK SUPPORTS HIGH CAPACITY NEW

Plungers stay retracted during part loading while air flow travels through the work support. Hydraulic pressure advances the plunger exerting only spring force as it makes contact with the part. This closes the integral air valve to indicate part is present and contacted. Hydraulic pressure then automatically sequences, “freezing” the plunger.  Available in 2,000, 4,000 and 8,000 lb. capacity.  Order with four bolt base or cartridge only.  Once support is locked, air sensing positively confirms both contact and part present.  Use Vektek’s Air Sensing Control Kit 50-8240-00 for easy setup.  Four bolt base is compatible with Vektek In-Port flow control and In-Port sequence valves.  Uses Vektek’s BHC technology to guard against corrosion. n O-Ring face seal design makes machining cavities easier. n Max air operating pressure is 15 PSI. Standard SAE porting and alternate O-Ring manifold face seal is located in the base of the support for bolt down installation. The base can be removed for direct cartridge mounting. Confirm part is present and contacted even on as-cast surfaces!

NOTE: The maximum system back-pressure a fluid advance work support can overcome is 10 psi. Returning back-pressure greater than 10 psi may cause slow or failed retractation. * Support capacities are listed at 5,000 psi maximum pressure. Support capacities for other pressures are shown in the fluid advance High Capacity and Part Present Sensing load capacity chart. ** Restrict flow rate to a maximum of 130 cu. in./minute. *** For cartridge mount models, see cavity dimensions drawings in this catalog section. **** In-Port Valves require the use of manifold mount ports.
