Finding a Part
Grip Illustration
Figure 11 on page 43 shows an exploded view of the 2716-015 version of the 30 kN
wedge grips. The only visual difference between this version and the 2736-015 (High
Temperature) version is that there are four handles on the high temperature version.
The 2716-015 (30 kN) wedge grip is visually similar to both the 2716-010 (5 kN) and
2716-020 (50 kN) wedge grips, so the same graphic is used to identify parts for all three
grips.
To identify a part from the grip illustration:
1. Locate the part on the illustration.
2. Refer to the item number on the illustration.
3. Refer to the item number on the corresponding parts list.
Each item number has a part description, an Instron part number and a quantity. The
quantity represents the number of parts for one grip. For the jaw faces, each catalog
number provides 4 faces (2 for each grip).
