About Shimpo FG-M6FPG3 Fine Point Grip, M6 Thread, 30lbs
The Shimpo M6 thread test stand grip is an accessory for Shimpo force gauge test stands that attaches to a test stand to allow testing on a range of materials. The attachment has an M6 thread. A choice of grip styles is available. The small-pin grip attachment (also called pin grip attachment) has a 22 lb. (11 kg) capacity and is for gripping wires and filaments. The fine-point grip attachment is for gripping fine- to medium-gauge wire, ribbon tape, and paper. The spring-loaded film grip attachment with serrated jaws has a 100 lb. (45 kg) capacity. The spool grip attachment has a 100 lb. (45 kg) capacity and is for anchoring hard-to-hold items such as thread and filaments. The wedge grip attachment has a 100 lb. (45 kg) capacity and has jaws that close on the specimen and tighten as tension is applied for testing wires, strip material, plastic tape, or film. The Jacobs chuck grip attachment has a 100 lb. (45 kg) capacity and is for testing low-gauge wire and rigid rods. The flat chuck grip attachment with serrated faces has a 100 lb. (45 kg) capacity for tensile testing. The tape grip attachment with self-tightening action has a 100 lb. (45 kg) capacity for testing rubber, tape, and paper. Force gauges, also called push-pull gauges or tension gauges, measure the tensile (pull) or compression (push) force applied to an object. They are used to test the strength and functionality of a variety of machines, electronic components, cables, wires, and consumer products in scientific, medical, automotive, quality assurance, and manufacturing applications. A digital force gauge shows the amount of force in digits on the gauge's display. Response time varies among digital force gauges depending on the speed of the processor. An analog (or mechanical) force gauge shows measurements on a calibrated dial. Analog force gauges are not as precise as digital force gauges, but they provide instantaneous measurements and can be used in a wider range of environmental conditions than digital force gauges. Hooks, compression plates, levers, handles, test stands, and other accessories can be used with the gauge for taking measurements on objects with a range of shapes and sizes. Shimpo Instruments manufactures force, torque, and speed evaluation instruments. The company, founded in 1974 and headquartered in Itasca, IL, meets International Organization for Standardization (ISO) standard 9001.
