Cobalt [Co]

Standard Grippers are named for increasingly hard metals. Cobalt alloys are so exceedingly hard, they are used to make critical components that simply cannot be allowed to wear with use. For example, jet engine turbine blades. Closing the Cobalt lands you in the stratosphere of grip strength!     

Standard grippers are expected to be back in stock during July/August 2026. We finally received a machine part that was ordered about 6 months ago. *Phew!

The cost of Standard Grippers has been impacted by rising material costs, mainly due to tariffs which are a tax on the consumer. Even for products made in the USA, raw materials are frequently from Canada or China. Material costs have risen 285%.
