GN 858 latch type toggle clamps are used when very high retaining forces are required.

The latch type clamp also features a locking mechanism which prevents the inadvertent or vibration-induced opening of the clamp.

Another benefit of this clamp is the ability to operate it with one hand.

Catch is included.

• General information for toggle clamps 

 

To release, move the locking mechanism in the direction of the arrow.

 

Lift the lever arm until the latch bolt is disengaged from the catch.

 

Moving the lever arm back will lift the latch bolt and release the catch (one-hand operation).

 

For clamping, lift the lever arm until the latch bolt rests against the catch.

 

The latch bolt engages with the catch if the locking mechanism is moved upward during clamping.

When clamping in the end position, the mechanism locks automatically through spring tension.
