Hydraulic Side-Acting Grips | Reliable and Versatile Material Testing Solutions

HYDRAULIC SIDE ACTING GRIPS

BISS side acting hydraulic grips are intended for both static and dynamic testing applications. Hydraulically activated grips ensures uniform and axially aligned gripping of both flat and round test coupons as well as to hold test fixtures. These advanced grips maintain a constant clamping force on the specimen that acts perpendicular to the direction of testing and is independent of tensile loading.

Clamping force in the grips is set by means of pressure regulating valve on the service manifold. Gripping is activated from the operator touch screen panel. Pressure line accumulators and non- return valve ensure retention of gripping force in the event of power outage.

Features

  • Adjustable clamping force avoids specimen slippage and grip breaks.
  • Rated for static and fatigue operation.
  • Improved repeatability of test results attributed to uniform gripping.
  • Fully open-front design provides easy specimen insertion increasing testing efficiency and safety.
  • Jaw faces are easily installed from the front side of grips and require no maintenance beyond simple cleaning.
  • Adjustable pressure to suit variety of Materials.
  • Grips are field-serviceable reducing down time and eliminating the cost of sending the grips back to the factory for service.
  • Excellent repeatability.
  • Grip control is disabled during test run for protection
