Decent heavy gripper


Roger Roberson

Recommended Posts

How is there a gripper that heavy? It's unfathomable for me to imagine how heavy either of these must feel!

Both make my 258# GHP10 look "light", I can only move it just a few mm.

Are there names for either of those specific grippers? How on earth did you come across that 380#'er?

The 327 is a world class Tetting. the 380 is off brand k2400 with .375 spring diameter. I tryed it earlier without chalk slipped very quick lol

Much appreciated!

Got a deal on ebay in 2015, if you google well enough you can find some info. K2fsi.com

Did it lose any spread? I sure never closed it. Even the 100 is like a coc1.5.

The knurling is deep, but not that sharp and the handles are clear coated steel, painful and slippery, bad combo.

Thanks Wobbler for that information, unfortunately I haven't found much more from searching google

By the looks from their Facebook page, it appears they may have liquidated any remaining stock back in 2015.

Would you know of anywhere online I could possibly purchase any from?

No idea. Still got a 250 that' harder to chest crush than my 170 ghp8.

Willing to sell? 

It would be a nice in-between for my #3 and RB 300(184#)

Managed to get 5 good negatives in on the k2400 the knurling is very deep and that first negative was tough felt like grabbing a ball of nails . Hope to get a video of the negatives Sunday if all goes well. definitely going to take it slow this first week with it may try 10 negatives next week.

@Cannon Would you mind telling us if this is the heaviest torsion spring ever rated? 

The heaviest new gripper we ever rated was a Tetting World Class at 300. 

The heaviest of any gripper rated by us is that 380.
