| | Dec 4, 2009 — The new Abrasive Diamond Surface Grippers from Fairlane® Products are now available through Fixtureworks®. These new grippers feature an abrasive diamond surface (comparable to that of 100 grit sandpaper), which is bonded permanently to a stainless steel pad. This provides excellent non-slip gripping on smooth or slippery surfaces with minimal clamping force and surface marking. The individual diamond particles transfer holding pressure to a very small and well-distributed area, as well as provide unparalleled wear resistance. These high-strength grippers are available in various sizes and configurations suitable for a variety of workholding applications.
Diamond Surface fixed grippers, available in counter-bored and tapped versions, range in diameter from 5/16” to 1”, and from 8mm to 25mm. The gripper base material is hardened 17-4 stainless steel, providing high strength as well as protection against chemical and environmental corrosion.
Replaceable Ball Swivots®, swivel-positioning grippers are available in base, hex head, and threaded body versions, with contact diameters ranging from 6mm to 21mm. The Swivot ball material is 303 stainless steel, providing strength and protection against chemical and environmental corrosion.
Thrust Screws, allowing straight-line static load thrust ideal for irregular shaped or contoured applications, are available in threaded and headed versions, with contact diameters ranging from 6mm to 21mm.
Replaceable Pad Swivots, available in base, hex head, and threaded body versions, can also utilize the new Diamond Surface Grippers. | |
