Seatallan Ltd is a specialist supplier of grips and fixtures for the materials testing industry.  We manufacture a wide range of standard grips for tension/compression testing machines, as well as offering a design and manufacturing service for special grips and fixtures to customer requirements. 

Our sister company Seatallan Engineering Ltd supplies precision components for our grips as well as machined components for the testing machine, power station  marine and environmental industries.  Because of our involvement in the testing machine industry,  Seatallan Engineering can also provide a manufacturing service to materials testing machine manufacturers.  This service includes manufacturing their own designs of grip under contract, as well as testing, packaging and labeling, leading to a complete product, ready to ship.

Tension/compression testing machines are widely used in industry for quality assurance purposes and in research and university materials laboratories for fundamental material research.  We supply some of the world’s largest testing machine manufacturers with our grips, and also export to all parts of the world.  

In addition we also manufacture analogue one and two pen flatbed chart recorders, and single pen X/Y and Y/t plotters. These rugged and reliable products are widely used in industry, research and universities.  We can also supply pens and paper for most types of similar recorders.

The design and build of special testing machines is also one of our specialties.  These fall outside the normal tension/compression machines and can include falling weight, falling dart machines, sample cutters, pressure testers etc.  With our own in house design and manufacturing capability we have completed several of these contracts for our customers.
