A-11. Composite structure mfg: Core holding supply packages of heavy fibers such as Kevlar, carbon fibers, and S-2 glass on creel tensioners. Replaces threaded core chucks commonly used in this industry and slides over them and then tightens on the threads. This type of creel is used in “filament winding and prepreg manufacturing, outside pull creels,” and works
on both right and left-hand threads. Color is pressed into an aluminum core holding chuck.
In other words, almost anywhere that a conventional shaft collar is used, a Grip Fast™ can also be used.
