The Sliding spring clamp has a retractable spring arm which applies a clamping pressure directly onto the work piece. The locating end of the spring arm has a thin surface area which ensures maximum access around the work piece when clamped. The Sliding Spring Clamp locates onto the LEE-15 Tension Post and can be used in a horizontal or vertical orientation. The Sliding Spring Clamp can be used in conjunction with number of fixture components to create clamping assemblies.

The Sliding Spring Clamp comprises of three components; the ‘body’, the ‘spring arm’ and the ‘thumb screw’ all parts are supplied assembled. The sliding spring clamp is used in conjunction with the LEE-15 Tension Post and locates onto the post via the 6mm diameter hole. The Sliding Spring Clamp can be positioned at any point along the body of the Post and is fixed in position by tightening the Thumb Screw.
The spring arm should initially be positioned in tension against the workpiece to hold it in place. The workpiece is released by lifting the spring arm away from the workpiece by hand. Care should be taken not to over extend the spring arm as it could become permanently distorted.
In order to fully appreciate the way in which this component is used we recommend that you view the ‘typical applications page’ in the product catalogue, manual or on our website at http://www.leecosfixture.com

For general cleaning, a mild soap and water solution can be used applied with a cloth or sponge. For removal of grease or oily deposits methylated spirits can be applied with a cloth or sponge. In both cases the part should be finally rinsed in cold water and thoroughly dried.
