Dillon-Force: Overload Protection and Overhead Weighing Equipment

	Accessories Extension rods increase length when needed. Quick coupler/adaptoers allow quick interchange of grips between the stand and guage. They can also be used to affordably adapt one thread size to another.
	Compression Fittings Can apply a variety of compressive loads. Compression loading only.
	Frictional Drum Grips Reduce grip-induced stress on the sample. They distribute friction around a fixed drum, which results in a much smaller clamping force needed to hold the sample. Tension only.
	Hooks A popular method to grab tensile samples when loops, holes, folds or overlaps exist. Quick attachment to the sample. Tension only.
	Self Tightening Grips Self-tightening grips increase clamping force on the specimen as it is loaded. Typically a wedge or eccentric roller design. Work in tension only.
	Vice Action Grips Squeeze the specimen prior to the test. Jaw spacing remains fixed, regardless of the load applied. Good for materials that do not neck significantly under load.
