Pneumatic Grips

40–100 kN

Pneumatic grips use compressed air for automatic, repeatable clamping without manual torque adjustment on every specimen. This reduces operator variation in high-volume test programmes.

They are preferred for rubber, textiles, bituminous membranes, woven tapes, and thin films that tend to slip in mechanical jaws. Foot-pedal or software control speeds the test cycle.
