greppstark Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 Is it worth buying them? Does they break over time? Need to get more grippers to my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JoshW Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 If you have £10 spare the HG300 is the only one I like. Only if you want a cheap one that arrives in a few days 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GrassMaine89 Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 I don't like the feel of them...I have read people say that they season poorly but I be no experience with that...just simply don't like the feel 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greppstark Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Off topic but found a super offer on a swedish gym equipment web store.. 2 captains of crush grippers for the price of one. I orderd 4 grippers. #Sport #0.5 #1 and... #4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greppstark Posted May 25, 2015 Author Share Posted May 25, 2015 Thanks for quick answers guys Now when i have found my way back to grippers i feel that i need to have a bigger gripper collection to proceede in my grip strength. The Beef Builder grippers are hard to get nowadays right? Or is there a website that still has some left? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chez Posted May 25, 2015 Share Posted May 25, 2015 (edited) I tried them once because my friend had the entire set and they felt really cheap. I really didn't like them. The spreads and mounts were all different. I would rather spend more money on the higher quality brands (COC, GHP, Tetting and RB) Edited May 25, 2015 by Chez 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It sounds logic that the more grippers you own you better you get. Very informative video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jüri Sankman Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 (edited) Hey, I have one (and this will be my last) HG200. It was my first gripper. I find it very good for TNS work, because it have low knurling and slips nicely in hand. J. Edited May 26, 2015 by Jüri Sankman 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greppstark Posted May 26, 2015 Author Share Posted May 26, 2015 I have heard that Robert baraban grippers season over time? Anyone know about that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Dax Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I have heard that Robert baraban grippers season over time? Anyone know about that? I have 2x RB180,RB210, RB240, RB 260 and an RB300. I haven't noticed any seasoning on the 180s or 210 I cant get near closing the others yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MANTHOS Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 I bought a HeavyGrip 300 yesterday. It is harder than my CoC#2.5 and easier than my CoC#3, just what I was looking for. Maybe not top quality, maybe, but there are fine grippers to add to your collection. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ya they seem to be one of those things that some people like and some people don't...I don't like them but I do have the 100-350...they have held up fine over time, I just don't like how they feel in my hand...just a personal preference kind of thing...they are definitely a cost effective alternative Edited May 26, 2015 by GrassMaine89 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fist of Fury Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 I have heard that Robert baraban grippers season over time? Anyone know about that? I only have one of them but I haven't noticed that. However the chrome colour on the spring is starting to flake off, but that is only on the inside, so it's not easily visible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
