AlltagsKraft Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Hey guys, just wanted to ask what the normal width for a CoC#3 would be? Mine is about 7.8cm-8cm(3,07087-3,14961 inches) at the handles, I've read about other CoC#3s having like 6.8cm width. I have attached a pic of it. Feels quite close to my CoC#3.5, but I don't really have anything to measure the strength besides width. Thanks and keep it strong! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jörg Keilbach Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 Most of my Nr. 3 grippers are about 7,5 cm. I have one that is as wide as yours. It is rated at 158 # by CPW. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exarmy Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 the average is 75mm just like the average RCG is 150lbs, and there is a correllation between the spread and RCG, I rated 10 and here are the results I got: (1st number is RGC in lbs) 156 - 76.2mm 153 - 76.5mm 153 - 77.8mm 150 - 75.9mm 150 - 77.9mm 148 - 75.2mm 147 - 74.6mm 145 - 74.6mm 145 - 74.5mm 143 - 73.6mm the narrowest one I have is an old #3 i bought from JoshW on here, it's spread is 69.7mm and it's RGC is 140lbs. I think an explanation for this is it spent a long time in a choker, which could alter the spread and make it a bit easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richcottrell Posted July 18, 2016 Share Posted July 18, 2016 Exarmy, that is some collection of #3 grippers. Impressive. Did I miss some sort of IronMind promo? That is a stack of threes! rich Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exarmy Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I bought 10 and rated them to find the ones I needed, sold the ones I didn't need and kept 3 so now I have 3's in my collection rated at 140, 143, 148, 153, 156. managed to get them cheaper than retail by buying in bulk so all in all I think I broke even by the time I ad sold them on, and got the grippers I needed!

Old Dax Posted July 20, 2016 Share Posted July 20, 2016 I have an RB300 with a 97mm spread (rated as 165 by Sam Radcliff, who's ratings are about 4lb under those by Matt) why I'm keeping it I have no real idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
