Overview
Series PFD Pneumatic Frame Clamp is engineered to deliver consistent, high clamping force across a wide pressure range, making it ideal for demanding body-in-white, frame welding, and heavy fabrication applications. Its rugged cam-driven mechanism generates up to 4,581 lb (20.4 kN) of total clamp force, ensuring reliable part retention even on large or complex assemblies.
Advantages
Designed for flexibility, the PFD features wide jaw throat openings, multiple jaw styles, and robust tooling surfaces with dowel pin locations to simplify fixture design. A modular jaw system allows quick removal or modification, reducing downtime and supporting fast changeovers. Weld covers protect internal components from debris while remaining easily removable for maintenance and proximity switch adjustment without removing the clamp from the fixture
With switch-ready capability, integrated flow control, quiet operation under 0.7 seconds, and backward-compatible mounting surfaces, the PFD Series is a direct replacement for competitive frame clamps, delivering superior performance, serviceability, and long-term value.
