S75099 Pneumatic
Junior Clamp
Application Tool
•
The S75099 has been designed to tension, set the Junior style lock and cut-off the
remaining scrap clamp tail of Junior Smooth I.D. and standard Junior preformed
clamps. BAND-IT manufactures Junior style clamps using galvanized carbon steel,
Type 201 Stainless Steel and Type 316 Stainless Steel. Clamp widths are available
from ¼” to ¾” wide and available diameter clamps range from 13/16” to as large as 8”.
All clamps can be easily installed on hose assemblies or objects chosen by the operator
using the BAND-IT S75099 air tool.
•
During the operator controlled cycle, the S75099 Air Tool will tension the clamp around
the object by pulling the band through the buckle until the desired tension is achieved. If
the cycle is allowed to continue, the tool will release an amount of tension pressure
automatically, switching to a lower holding pressure. This pressure drop is in
preparation for manually setting the lock and shearing the excess clamp tail by
operating the cut-off handle*. The completion of each clamp includes setting the lock
while simultaneously cutting off the excess, scrap clamp tail. The finished lock should
be even with the height of the buckle thickness, have a smooth edge with no sharp
burrs while maintaining the low profile of the Junior style buckle.
*Important operational note! The S75099 tool directs compressed air through a foot
pedal control to cycle the tool and complete the installation of BAND-IT Junior style
clamps. The foot pedal has a dual action, forward (toe) and reverse (heel). During
normal operation, the operator should fully depress the foot pedal forward (toe), not
removing this pedal pressure until the cycle has completed, including the assembly roll
up and clamp tail cut-off. Upon completion of the lock, the heel of the foot pedal should
then be depressed causing the clamp tail to be positioned in the band slot, ready for
removal from the tool by the operator.
•
Operating tip: Operation can be stopped at any time by removing the operators foot
completely from the foot pedal control, however, this will affect the tension applied to
the clamp. If cycle is ended prematurely, prior to hose assembly roll-up, depress the
heel side of the foot pedal to remove the hose assembly from the tool or momentarily
allow the air system to stabilize and resume the clamping cycle by pressing the foot
pedal control forward. If the roll-up cycle has already been initiated, re-tensioning the
clamp will result in the tail being overstressed and breaking prematurely before the lock
can be formed.
