MTS Advantage™ Wedge Grips are versatile general-purpose grips in which the faces remain stationary during loading. This makes it especially useful for applications where screw or pneumatic grips do not provide sufficient clamping force, or where compressive or buckling forces are not desirable during specimen insertion.
Advantage Wedge Action Grips are versatile general-purpose grips in which the faces remain stationary during loading. This makes it especially useful for applications where screw or pneumatic grips do not provide sufficient clamping force, or where compressive or buckling forces are not desirable during specimen insertion. It works with servohydraulic and electromechanical machines and even accommodates the side insertion of specimens.
High-performance, versatile wedge grips with higher clamping force than screw or pneumatic grips
Faces remain stationary during loading to minimize compressive or buckling forces during specimen insertion
Anti-rotation features and integrated alignment pins enhance test accuracy and repeatability
Available with interchangeable faces for serrated wedges for round or flat specimens
Self-tightening during testing reduces slippage
Grips are sold in pairs
All specimen interfaces ("wedges") are sold separately
Applications: Tensile testing of metals, composites, ceramics, plastics and wood/paper products
