Tips for Proper Grip Selection
With many types of rubber grips for testing available, selecting the appropriate instrument ensures accurate testing. While lightweight materials require grips with smooth faces, sturdier samples need serrated grips. Thwing-Albert works with technicians to select the correct grip for the application.
TA7 Drum/Rubber Roller Grips From Thwing-Albert
The TA7 drum/rubber roller grip is an eccentric roller grip for flat samples such as soft metals, general polymers, plastics and rubber. The body and eccentrically mounted roller hold the sample. The cam action between the roller and body causes the load to increase and the grip to self-tighten. Pyramid and smooth rollers are also available upon request.
