Hytec Air Advance Work Support, 1300 lb Capacity [100877]

Hytec Air Advance Work Support, 1300 lb Capacity [100877]

Hytec’s air advance work supports have a spring return plunger which uses air pressure to extend it to contact the workpiece. To support any externally applied loads, the sleeve surrounding the plunger grips the plunger and holds it in place.

Air advance work supports allow the plunger to be retracted out of the way during workpiece load/unload operations. Applying air pressure to the work support gently raises the plunger until it contacts the workpiece. Adjusting the air pressure will vary the plunger contact force. The air pressure within the work support also serves to keep contaminants out.

The No. 100876’s threaded body may be compactly manifold mounted in your fixture or choose the No. 100877 which includes the 100876 work support and a mounting base for installation on a flat surface for conventionally plumbed circuits. Both feature fully corrosion resistant construction.

Extremely close manufacturing tolerances hold the plunger perpendicular to the workpiece and eliminates inaccuracies due to plunger movement during lock-up. After lock-up, the plunger is absolutely rigid and limits elastic deflection to .00007" per 100 lbs. of load. For base only, order number 500036.
