Screw side-action grips — GOST 9136, ASTM D5034, EN 1608, and related textile and composite tensile methods.
Side-action screw grips apply clamping force through a lateral screw mechanism — a durable choice for low and medium-capacity static tests.
Widely used for textiles, insulation materials, thin metal foil, and composite strip specimens. Interchangeable jaw faces (serrated, rubber-lined, diamond-coated) adapt to different friction requirements.
Vector designs and manufactures grips and fixtures for the test standards listed below. Configuration is confirmed for your specimen type and frame capacity.
| Standard | Max. load / force |
|---|---|
| GOST 9136 | 5 kN |
| ASTM D5034 / DIN EN ISO 13936-2 | 2.5 kN |
| ASTM F2118 (dynamic/fatigue) | 30 kN |
