EDGE GRIPPERS

FEATURES: Edge Grippers are helpful for applications where traditional face-mounted grippers are difficult to install. They have a useful flat profile because the mounting screw is parallel to the serrated face. Edge Grippers are ideal for mounting at the top edge of a clamping face such as a vise jaw. These serrated grippers are hard, replaceable inserts used to provide additional holding force and/or wear resistance when installed in a fixture. They are designed to slightly penetrate the workpiece to significantly increase gripping force, rather than relying on static friction alone.

SIZES: Edge Grippers are available in the following square sizes, most in a choice of thicknesses and serration size — see Dimensions page for part numbers:
 3/8 10mm
 1/2 12mm
 5/8 16mm
 3/4 20mm
 1" 25mm

INSTALLATION: Edge Grippers should be mounted in a flat-bottom recess that provides support behind the gripper. Fasten with a standard socket-head cap screw (on the largest three sizes, a low-head cap screw can be used to keep the screw head below the top surface). The serrated face should project 50 to 100% of serration height for maximum effectiveness (serration height is .062" on grippers with .125" x 90° fine serrations, .047" on grippers with .094" x 90° extra-fine serrations, .and .031" on grippers with .062" x 90° super-fine serrations).

MATERIAL: M-2 tool steel, heat treated Rc 60-62, black oxide finish.
