A general purpose lightweight wedge grip for flat and round samples. The jaw faces are sprung loaded onto the sample and released using the lever. The lever is designed to be positioned at the rear of the grip to give minimal obstruction when loading a sample. Jaw faces are interchangeable by releasing the retainers on the front of the grip and sliding out the faces. The body is open at the back so that samples wider than the jaw width of 25mm can be accommodated if centred about the jaw face.

The grips are supplied with 0-10mm flat faces. Round faces for 3-6mm diameter are available. Flat faces are cut with a 1.25mm pitch straight cut teeth.

This grip is particularly suitable for force gauges and low force testing frames. Male or female threaded fixings are available to suit the machine or force gauge being used. An adapter for the male/female fittings with crosspin as used on larger tensile testing machines is available.
