Air-Vac-Clamps

View / Purchase Available Models


Wood, plastic, solid surface material, processed wood materials or metals can be instantly and firmly secured without marks or dents using the Her-Saf Air-Vac-Clamps. These vacuum clamps use compressed air to safely hold materials for routing, trimming, sanding, painting, gluing and other fabrication applications. Materials are placed on a plate that holds via suction which allows access to the top and all edges of the workpiece. The Air-Vac-Clamp will stabilize any size panel or workpiece so that it is nearly impossible to move in a lateral direction. This allows a worker to use both hands for the job. (See "Clamping with Air" on our FYI page.)

The Air-Vac-Clamps easily connect to any clean compressed air line. The system's advanced venturi non-electric pump prevents clogging or damage by dirt or dust. The venture pump has no moving parts and requires minimal maintenance. A foot controlled on/off switch activates and releases the vacuum. The feet on each unit have been drilled so that the unit can be bolted to the floor if required. The Air-Vac-Clamp units are self-contained and arrive completely assembled (welded steel frames), ready to use.
Specifications: These units require a minimum of 85 pounds of air pressure on a clean compressed air line. These units use approximately 6 CFM's (cubic feet per minute) of free air flow. The top plate dimensions are 11 7/8" x 15 7/8"; each is 36" from the floor with the perimeter having a gasket of closed-cell neoprene. All Air-Vac-Clamp units can be shipped United Parcel Service or Common Carrier.

Kit for Quick Clamp

When making your own top plates use Kit #PT-QC222K. It has the plate adapter and required quick coupler for the pump. Each top plate has a closed-cell neoprene gasket. We recommend that custom tops be made from materials that have high pressure laminate on both sides, or a non-porous material, thus reducing air loss caused by the top plate or fixture. Small products can be produced by using an intermediate fixture as shown. If the workpiece is not flat, make the fixture to fit the form of the workpiece.

Gasket Material

The gasket material is for use with all of our vacuum clamp systems. Additional gasket material is sold in 25' long rolls. The gasket material is made of closed-cell neoprene. (Do not try to substitute weatherstripping or similar looking materials. These will allow air to escape nullifying the holding power of the vacuum.)
