This is a vice grip with pneumatic loading applied to one jaw face. The other side is manually adjustable to centre the sample. The 300N load is the pneumatic clamping force at 7 bar supply pressure. The actual load that can be applied to the sample will depend on the coefficient of friction.

The standard jaw face is rubber coated. Plain and pyramid cut faces are available. The rubber and plain faces are aluminium, the pyramid faces are steel hardened to 60HRC. All faces are 30mm × 30mm.

A 3 position foot valve is supplied as standard, a hand control is available as an option.

All pipework, valves etc. are included We do not supply the connection to the mains supply or mains filtering or regulation. It is recommended that non-lubricated filtered air is used. The 300N clamping force is quoted at 7 bar, the maximum air pressure that can be used is 8 bar. The connection from the mains to the grip controller is by 4mm o/d semi-rigid nylon tube into a push fit connector. We supply 3 metres of this tube with each grip assembly.
