Series 2736 Grips
Table 2 on page 18 details the specifications for the 2736 series of grips.
Jaw faces
Jaw faces are available for testing flat or round specimens. Use flat faces for flat
specimens and vee or round groove faces for round specimens. This section details the
various jaw faces available.
Caution
Do not use serrated jaw faces to test specimens with a hardness value greater than
40 Rockwell C.
When testing extremely hard specimens, the jaw face serrations may not adequately
penetrate the specimen surface. Further, hard specimens will cause accelerated wear
of the serrations.
Table 3 on page 19 lists the available jaw faces:
