Combine these grippers with your gripping fingers to lift and move items in pick-and-place applications.

Parallel grippers handle most shapes, including square, circular, and angled objects. Grippers with a forced-air jaw return have two air ports: one to move the jaws open and another to move them closed. The jaws grip items from the outside as well as the inside.

Grippers with steel jaws are harder and stronger than aluminum. Note: Choose a gripper with a holding force at least 10 times your item's weight.

Warning: Never use to lift people or items over people.
