Technical Overview
The Model 680.01 High-Temperature Grips were expressly designed for high-temperature, low-cycle fatigue testing, but can also be used for other types of tension-compression or tension-only testing. The grip heads and extension rods are constructed of high-temperature, superalloys selected to extend into the heated zone of the furnace, minimizing the thermal gradients within the specimen. Accessories for these grips include a hand pump (required), your choice of buttonhead or threaded specimen adapters, and a water cooling kit.
The Model 680.10 and 680.15 can accommodate both flat and round (button-head or threaded end) specimens.
