Function and Design
The RDRP Ultra Gripper is designed to hold 3.0mm, 3.5mm and 4.0mm shock shafts to make shock building as easy as 1-2-3.
Often manuals recommend to hold the lower end of the shock shaft with a set of pliers to attach the lower ball end but this can lead to visible (and invisible!) damage of the shaft and a weakened area that is prone to break more easily.
The RDRP Ultra Gripper, unlike pliers, has no sharp edges that can cause damage and is specially designed to capture the shaft securely without leaving marks. The shock shaft remains unharmed so does any coating on the parts for professionally build and flawlessly working shock absorbers.
Like the other Ultra series tools the Ultra Gripper is precision CNC-machined from 7075-T6 aluminium and sports a shiny black anodising that improves the surface of the notches for a more secure grip.
The grip notches for the shock shafts sport laser-engraved size markings so you can easily find the right setting to hold the shafts of most of todays 1/10 and 1/8 scale vehicles.
