For supporting most parts
Available in four capacities from 4.4 kN to 55.6 kN, to support light weight parts, heavy parts or "hog out" applications
When using the 3-2-1 locating principles, you often need additional support for a 4th, 5th or even more areas on your part. A work support will give you "floating" locators which won't interfere with your 3, 2 or 1 locators. Clamp opposite your locators then lock the supports. Even clamp over the supports if you need to (be sure to use approximately a 2:1 ratio of support to clamp force)
Spring extended plungers maintain contact with the part during loading exerting only spring force against the part; then hydraulically "freezes" the plunger without exerting any additional force on the part
Proprietary wiper and seal designs reduce contamination and drag for longer lasting, better performing work supports.
Special corrosion resistant plungers and sleeves reduce the tendency to stick.
Hand fitted plunger/sleeve assemblies allow VektorFlo® work supports to begin to lock at lower pressures and build support faster.
If spring advance supports must be used in flood coolant environments (we recommend Air Advance) attach tubing to the vent port and route to clean, dry air to keep coolant from being drawn in and becoming sticky on internal surfaces.
