Installing a Specimen
The following procedure describes how to install a specimen in the Advantage
Pneumatic Grips. This procedure assumes the proper set of face surfaces has
been selected and properly installed.
The contact area between the grip face and specimen should be as large as
possible.
A small contact area between the grip face and specimen can cause
premature wear to the grip face surface.
MTS recommends that specimens should be machined to provide the largest
possible surface contact area between the grip face and the specimen
