These components include:<\/span><\/p><ul><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\"><strong>Clamps:<\/strong> They are the moving parts of the grips that hold the sample. The clamps usually have a rough surface to ensure a firm grip and prevent slipping during the test.<\/span><\/li><li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\"><strong>Grip body<\/strong> They are the static parts of the grips that are opposite the clamps.

Then, the clamps are closed to firmly hold the sample. As a tensile force is applied, the sample stretches or deforms, and the load cell records the applied force. This allows measuring tensile strength, elongation, deformation, and other mechanical properties of the material.<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7a71495 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"7a71495\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-768x1024.jpg\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-14459\" alt=\"HYDRAULIC SIDE DRIVE CLAMP view of both (1)\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-600x800.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-118x157.jpg 118w, https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/06\/MORDAZA-ACCIONAMIENTO-LATERAL-HIDRAULICO-vista-de-las-dos-1-scaled.jpg 1920w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d06add5 elementor-widget elementor-widget-spacer\" data-id=\"d06add5\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"spacer.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-spacer-inner\"><\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8ec7886 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8ec7886\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"color: #000000;\"><b>Types of tension grips<\/b><\/span><\/h2><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400; color: #000000;\">There are <a href=\"https:\/\/www.servosis.com\/en\/product-category\/accessories-2\/gripping-jaws-for-traction\/\"><strong>several types of tension grips<\/strong><\/a> available, each with specific characteristics and applications.
