Bionix Bollard Grips

Bionix® Bollard Grips are “horn” style grips designed to reduce stress concentration on specimens and avoid grip-induced failures. They are suitable for testing cords, filaments, fibers, fine wire, and yarns at temperatures ranging from -130°C to 250°C.

Key Features & Benefits

  • Accurate & Repeatable — Anti-rotation features and integrated alignment pins for test accuracy & repeatability.
  • Durable — Built of durable stainless steel, they can be safely deployed within saline environmental baths.
  • Easy Installation — Universal adapter design and optional threaded frame adapters for easy installation.
  • Versatile — Support a full spectrum of biomaterial, medical device component, and medical packaging testing.
