V-Jaws for MEC240K Medium Vice Grips, 30 mm Wide, Ø 3-52 mm Max. Opening
V-Jaws (3-52mm diameter) - nickel-plated having a hardened steel surface of 1.2mm pitch teeth to create a V-shaped groove.
For round samples where flat jaws do not provide enough surface contact (e.g. wires, rods, tubes)
Supplied as 0.5 set = 2 jaws (left & right). Order any combination of 2 half sets of jaws to fit into a pair of any Mec240k Medium Vice grips (upper & lower). Jaw opening depends on which model of grip body is selected.
Mechanical Vice Grips apply a clamping force by manually tightening parallel jaw faces directly onto the specimen. Single-action vice grips allow one jaw to be set in position to align the specimen around the central axis and the other jaw to be freely adjustable to clamp it in place. Consequently, they are best suited for tensile testing of symmetrical specimens which do not vary greatly in thickness.
The Mec240k Medium Vice Grips are rated between 1 – 2.5 kN and available in 4 sizes with jaw openings ranging from 0-10mm right up to 0-50mm depending on the jaw types selected. An extensive collection of interchangeable, high-performance jaws with differing surface profiles provide excellent gripping characteristics to ensure that a variety of materials and components can be securely held.
Ideal for tension tests below 2.5kN on flat strips of metal and plastic, thin sheets and tapes plus non-woven and general fabrics.
