Type 1 and Type 2 Pantograph Grips
Features:
- Ideal for testing rubber, textiles, and soft plastics
- Type 1 and type 2 models with maximum capacity of 1 kN (220 lbf) and 5 kN (1,100 lbf)
- Quick clamping mechanism with a self-tightening action
- Fitted with parallel-grooved grip faces for securing soft specimens
Relevant Materials:
Rubber, Soft Plastics, Textiles
Relevant Specimens:
Plates
Pantograph grips use a simple spring design to hold and apply pressure to specimens during tensile testing. These grips are mainly used for tensile testing plate specimens of rubber, textiles, or soft plastics.
There are two types of pantograph grips: type 1 and type 2. Type 1 pantograph grips suit wider, thinner samples, whereas type 2 pantograph grips are better for narrower and thicker samples. Both grip types are fitted with parallel-grooved grip faces to enhance soft specimen clamping.

Hydrogen Energy Analysis Solutions for Quality Control of Hydrogen
Impurities in hydrogen production affect subsequent industrial processes. Strict purity standards have been defined for hydrogen used in fuel cells (ISO 14687-2019). This is because if hydrogen contains carbon monoxide, sulfur components, etc., the catalyst of the fuel cell will be damaged. The hydrogen fuel standard for FCVs (ISO 14687 TypeII GradeD) defines many items to be controlled, and Shimadzu analytical instruments can play a role in analyzing these items.
