POWER CLAMP Clamping Systems
POWER-GRIP
POWER-GRIP "clamps" parts without clamping elements.
It's a heat-activated wax-based compound, available as:
- Power-Coil with a paper carrier foil for holding smooth, flat parts.
- Super-Coil with a mesh carrier foil for higher holding forces for holding irregular shaped parts.
- Stick, which can be used in shallow cavities for holding concave, convex and flimsy parts.
POWER-GRIP suits for steel, non-ferrous metals, glas, wood, most plastics and a lot of other materials. Depending on the texture and the size of the contact area the holding force is 30 - 200 N/cm².
POWER-GRIP is completely non-toxic and can be removed free of residues.

It's as simple to use POWER-GRIP
Step 1
Take a sheet of PowerGrip leaving a 6 mm border on all sides or melt stick on warm subplate.
Step 2
Press your working piece slightly on its support. Over large thin workpieces use a top plate for even pressure.
Step 3
Heat to approx. 85°- 95°C.
Place a separate piece of Power-Grip paper on part: temperature is correct when piece is melted.
Step 4
Displace workpiece from heat. Use air or water to cool, being careful to prevent water from going between subplate and workpiece while hot.
Step 5
Now the part is ready to machine. If necessary use coolant to avoid heating of Power-Grip. To remove part after machining, reheat to between 80°- 95°C.
