Clamps and Workholding

Featuring dovetail and self-centering vises with exceptionally powerful clamping forces. The quick-change jaws incorporate a pull-down feature to actively minimize jaw lift. Low-friction surface treatment improves performance and reduces wear. The leadscrew features rolled trapezoidal threads for superior strength and durability. The adjustable centerline allows for easy recentering.

Featuring base plates, vise jaws and mounting studs to transform your workholding fixture to a modular system. The accessories can assist in switching out between various vises and collet fixtures. Vise jaws are available in steel and aluminum forms. Base plates are available in different shapes and sizes. Assembly is extremely simple with minimal tools required.

The Actima clamping device is self-locking and designed for smooth, precise clamping that is both repeatable and very forceful. It can be used for thrust or tension clamping, and is ideal to build into clamping fixtures, such as a teeter-totter. The clamping plunger of every Actima clamp has a travel of 12 mm.

Reid Supply offers left hand and right hand thrust and pull Actima handles along with a variety of mounting hardware and accessories for toggle clamps of all diameters and latching applications

Available in stainless steel and low carbon steel with black oxide finish. Broad range of lengths and thread sizes to choose from.

Base mounted plunger clamps Plunger have an extremely low height when in operation regardless of thehandle positionmaking these toggle clamps extremelt versatile when the working space is restricted.

Blank Clamp Arms are designed to allow custom arms to be attached to the piston rod of power swing clamps with tapered rod ends.

Due to their tremendously high energy level, rare earth magnets are ideal for miniature applications. Popular applications include wind generation, electric motors, packaging, scientific experiments, design and display.

Bolt Retainers are welded onto solid toggle clamp hold down bars after securing the spindle assembly with jam nuts. These bolt retainers are available for 1/2” – 5/8” spindle diameters.

These magnets offer good corrosion resistance and can be used in welding workshops and as mounting aids for precision accessories.

Button magnets offer good corrosion resistance and can be used in welding workshops and as mounting aids for precision accessories.

C-Clamps include a flat surface top that is used as the stationary jaw while a threaded stud is screwed through the top with a rotating pad on one end and a T-handle on the other. Force is applied by holding the clamp over the work piece and turning the T-handle upwards.

Cam Handle Edge Clamps lock positively at any position within its 180 degree turn to hold parts that vary slightly in dimensions. The clamp jaw pivots forward and downward simultaneously when the handle is turned to hold the work piece securely to the table.

Cam Handles also called Cam Levers, are used for clamping force that can lock at any position within its 180 degree turn to hold parts that vary slightly in dimensions. The clamp jaw pivots forward and downward simultaneously when the handle is turned to hold the work piece securely to the table.

Cam Machine Strap Clamp Assemblies have a spring loaded stud and cam lever for quick action and high holding pressure. Plain Grip Machine Strap Clamps reach over the work piece and hold it in place for maximum pressure. These clamps are available machined from solid bar stock or tempered steel with a varnished finish.

These modular elements can be positioned and tightened without removing the swing cylinder from the fixture. Can be mounted with a bolt or through compression method depending on the arm type.

Protect your set-up clamps with these supports. Includes washer, spring and shaft collar. Black oxide finish on washer. Choose from various diameters.

The fixture provide a simple and low-profile solution for clamping cylindrical workpieces. Standard ER40 collets (not included) can be housed within the fixture. Coller nuts and mounting studs are included.

Cone-Tip (Head?) Bonded Neoprene Spindle Assemblies provide an alternative choice to the spindle provided with the toggle clamp. The steel spindle is durable while the neoprene cone-tip minimizes marking with minimal clamping contact.

Polyurethane Cone Head Spindle Caps attach to head of the spindle assembly on toggle clamps. Internal threads allow the caps to be screwed onto the spindle. The polyurethane material has good memory, high oil resistance, and abrasion resistance.

Cup & Hook Magnets are low profile magnets that are ideal for holding steel doors, hanging signs and lights, mounting antennas, retrieving steel items from tanks, vats, bins and lakes, holding traps in place and many other industrial uses.

Cylindrical Electromagnets use a controlled electrical current to control the strength of the magnetic field. These plug-in electromagnets have controlled holding power and on command release.

Reid Supply offers disc and cylindrical magnets primarily in Neodymium, Alnico and Ceramic models. Neodymium magnets are powerful, yet compact. Alnico magnets are ideal for high heat applications and cermanic magnets are generally the most economical. Applications are abundant: fixtures, jigs, panel mounts, end of retrieving tools, catches/latches, linear actuators, sensing, gyroscopes, flow meters, pacemakers, etc.

Standard Drill Press Vises can be used from three sides to level work quickly with built-in jaw parallels. Widely spaced guide bars permit drilling clear through work and jaw sides are designed to permit accurate drilling from the sides without resetting.

Edge and Toe Clamps provide positive down force while using very little space on a fixture.

Flange Nut Machine Strap Clamp Asseblies have a spring loaded stud and cam lever for quick action and high holding pressure. These assemblies are ideal for holding plain surface work where quick movements are required in a restricted space.
