The manual wedge action grip is designed for easy specimen loading, alignment and positioning. After initial face to specimen contact, gripping force will increase as the testing load increases. Due to Instron®'s design of moving grip bodies, virtually no preload is seen during specimen clamping. This makes them particularly suitable for testing high strength materials,
such as metals and composites, ensuring that specimen
slippage is eliminated.

Thermoplastic materials are processed as fluids under the effect
of temperature and pressure. The ability of melted materials to flow under pressure at set temperatures has a fundamental importance in polymer science and technology. The Instron line of CEAST Melt Flow Testers have been specifically designed for the easy and accurate measuring of the flow properties of plastics according to the related ISO and ASTM international standards.

The MFX 500 is a high-resolution, automatic contacting extensometer that may be used to measure modulus, offset yields, and plastic (non-proportional) elongation to failure for many types of specimens. Automatic control is facilitated using Bluehill® 2 Software, and allows the operator to open and close the arms, set the reference arm position, along with the gauge length.

The 2701-221 combined specimen holder and specimen alignment device (patent pending) is an optional item for 2712-041 and
042 pneumatic side-action grips. The spring-loaded grippers hold the specimen while the operator closes the grips prior to starting
the test.
