P5GT is an extremely compact and robust double wedge series of grippers. A one piece 7075 -T6 aircraft quality aluminum body is used with dynamic components that are hardened for wear resistance and long life. Jaws are supported throughout the length of the body and are precision ground for minimal jaw play. A double acting piston is connected by a shaft to a double sided wedge.

The wedge slides in a slot located in each of the jaws converting vertical motion of the wedge into horizontal synchronous motion of the jaws. The large surface area of the wedge minimizes frictional wear. Slip fit dowel pin holes are located in the body and jaws. Accessory mounting holes mount sensors to the unit and a magnetic piston is standard.
