MTS Advantage™ Screw Action Grips
Introduction
16
The temperature matrix specifies the temperature range at which the grip can
be used depending on the various components that comprise the grip when
configured for testing. For example, a grip (aluminum body) with a silicon
puck and lubricated piston screw would have a temperature range of -40 to
150 ºC (-40 to 300 ºF).
