Applicable standards
Vector designs and manufactures grips and fixtures for the test standards listed below. Configuration is confirmed for your specimen type and frame capacity.
- DIN 4843
- GOST 9292
- ISO 20344
- DIN CEN/TR 16792
Pincer grips — DIN 4843, ISO 20344, and small or irregular specimen tensile programmes.
Pincer grips use a scissor-like motion for small, delicate, or irregular specimens where wedge or screw grips are impractical.
Common for footwear sole adhesion, button pull-out, fine wire, and small-component tests requiring light, even pressure.
Maximum test capacity
| Standard | Max. load / force |
|---|---|
| ISO 20344 (footwear) | Typical 1–2 kN |
