The MTS Advantage™ Screw Grip offers versatility and a high clamp force. This makes it especially good for applications where pneumatic grips do not provide sufficient clamping force. It works with servohydraulic and electromechanical machines and even accommodates the side insertion of specimens.
Faces pivot for self-alignment and reduced likelihood of breakage at the specimen face contact
Quick and easy interchangeable faces are compatible with MTS pneumatic grips
Flexible mounting allows adapters to be easily changed
Accommodates threaded configurations
Knurled screw for hand tightening of specimen during installation
Low profile grip body increases test space, provides room to hold specimens above and below the faces
Side-loading design suitable for use in environmental chambers
Can be used in a fixed (one side follows through) and non-fixed (both sides follow through) configuration
Interchangeable, resilient pucks to allow follow through action, to compensate for specimen neck-down, minimize damage to delicate specimens, and increase clamp load for difficult specimens
Temperature range of -129°C to 200°C (-200°F to 400°F) when using the aluminum version of the pucks described above
Grips are sold in pairs
All specimen interfaces ("faces") are sold separately
Applications: Tensile testing of metals, plastics, polymers, and wood with ability to test lap shear specimens
