Grips, Fixtures, and Attachments

Grips and fixtures for many of the force gauge brands are interchangeable. The style of grips is usually connected with 10-32 or 5/16-18 thread connections. Lloyd grips and fixtures have a special coupling method for easy change over. We carry adapters (listed below) so that the force gauge grips and Lloyd style grips may be used with force testers. In some cases, force gauge grips can be used with Lloyd material testers.
