Series 647 All-Temperature Hydraulic Wedge Grips

Series 647 All-Temperature Grips can be operated within an environmental chamber at temperatures up to 1000°F (540°C). Two models are available: one with a range from –130 to 315°C (–200°F to +600°F), and the other from –130 to 540°C (–200°F to +1000°F).

Key Features & Benefits

  • Rapid Specimen Changeover — Remote opening and closing allows specimens to be changed quickly
  • Accurate — Low thermal gradients minimize risk of thermal stress on specimen
  • Adjustable Pressure — Hydraulic pressure can be adjusted, allowing these grips to be used for testing a variety of materials
  • Multiple Wedge Selection — A wide variety of wedges are available to meet your testing requirements
