Torsional and Axial Torsional Grips
These universal drill-type chuck grips can be used to hold round, hex or triangular specimens. The standard sets are available in both a keyless and keyed style that can hold a range of specimen sizes. Keyless operation lets you rapidly grip and release specimens. A comfortable, sure grip sleeve allows you to hand-tighten the chucks. Keyed operation provides fast, easy tightening, as well as quick, non-stick release.
Principle of Operation Chuck-style grips are threaded into or bolted to the output shaft and/or torque cell of MT Series frames. The chuck grips spin closed to clamp specimens during torsion testing. The jaws of these grips extend well beyond the chuck nose to accept a broad range of wires, cables and cylindrical specimens. Both keyed and keyless chucks are available for gripping a variety of specimen diameters and include adapters for mounting to an MT Series frame.
