The attachment in this article explains the TDS-13 Low Profile Dog Stop (Publication 696-081 Rev A) by TSO Products LLC is a repositionable bench stop designed for 20mm hole-pattern workbenches. It provides quick, low-profile workpiece immobilization without applying continuous clamping pressure, making it ideal for efficient workflow setups.
The TDS-13 uses Smart Connect Dogs (Short), M8 stainless washers, and low-profile M8 socket head cap screws, tightened with a 5mm hex driver. It is installed by aligning the dogs into paired 20mm holes, sliding the body against the workpiece, and tightening the screws to secure position. For repeat accuracy, users can mark hole locations and dog positions for “position memory.”
Unlike traditional clamps, the TDS-13 functions as a precision bench stop rather than a pressure clamp.
