Parallel Jaw Grips are designed for tensile testing up to 500N of thin flat components and materials, which require secure gripping over an extended surface area.

Star handles allow jaw positions to be adjusted to ensure central loading during tensile testing.

Jaw faces are 44mm high x 32mm wide and serrated to clamp specimens securely. Maximum specimen thickness = 6mm.

Fitted with 10-32 UNF threaded hole and male grub-screw.

The 5 kN Wedge Grip is ideal for tensile testing of flat and rigid materials, including plastics, rubber and light metals.

A spring-loaded lever ensures the serrated jaws (25mm wide x 32mm high) are easy to open for fast securing and release of samples. As load is applied, the self-tightening action of the wedge jaws ensures the sample is held rigidly without slippage.

Fitted with a 5-16 UNC threaded hole and grub-screw for fixing to a loadcell/gauge or base plate of a test stand.

The small, lightweight Wedge Grip is ideal for tensile testing below 500 N.

A spring-loaded lever ensures the serrated jaws (16mm wide x 20mm high) are easy to open for fast securing and release of samples. As load is applied, the self-tightening action of the wedge jaws ensures the sample is held rigidly without slippage.

Fitted with a 10-32 UNF threaded hole and grub-screw for fixing to the base plate of a test stand. When fixing to a loadcell/gauge these wedge grips are often be used with a chain-link assembly to provide a flexible connection.

For use with Mecmesin digital force and torque gauges. 110 Volt with 2 flat pins. Commonly used in USA, Canada, Mexico and Japan.

Connects AFG, AFTI , Orbis or Tornado RS232 to PC.

Comprises 15-pin female D-connector to 9-pin female D-connector.

Connects AFG, AFTI, Orbis or Tornado to digimatic (Mitutoyo) devices.

Comprises 15-pin female D-connector to 10-pin IDC connector female.

Connects the AFG, AFTI (2006 - now), Orbis or Tornado (2008 - now) to the USB port of a PC for data transfer by RS232.

Comprises a 15-pin female D-connector to USB-A connector.

Used in tension tests the Multi-Jaw Grip is for holding round and irregularly shaped specimens by clamping on the outer surface or under a 'head'.

By turning the body of the grip the claw-type jaws can be opened and closed to get a secure grasp on a specimen when conducting tensile tests below 500 N.

Fitted with a female 10-32 threaded hole.

Pin chucks are specifically designed for gripping circular or rod-type specimens of diameters between 0.5 - 3.5mm.

For tension and compression testing below 100N.

Fitted with adaptor having 10-32 UNF female threaded hole & 10-32 UNF grub-screw.

Set of 100mm high extended-length gripping pegs.

These gripping pegs have a soft-rubber sleeve to clamp and keep taller samples secure and vertically aligned during torque testing.

Pegs are fitted with an M6 thread and attach to upper and lower Torque Fixing Tables plus Orbis and Tornado Torque Testers.

Set of standard 35mm high gripping pegs.

These gripping pegs have a soft-rubber sleeve to clamp and keep samples secure and vertically aligned during torque testing.

Pegs are fitted with an M6 thread and attach to upper and lower Torque Fixing Tables used on motorised torque testers or equally to the manually-operated Orbis and Tornado Torque Testers.

Set of 15 Penetration Needles for use with the Mecmesin Shotcrete Pentrometer.

Needles fit into the needle-holder supplied as standard with the Shotcrete Penetrometer

Spring-action Vice Clamp is fitted with adjustable serrated interlocking jaws to effectively grip specimens for tensile testing up to 200 N.

Ideal for gripping up to 16mm wide strips of film, paper, labels, tape and other thin materials for tensile and peel testing.

Fitted with adaptor having 10-32 UNF female threaded hole.

Often used in conjunction with 'chain-link assembly' (432-259) for ease of insertion of specimens.
