Van Veen Grabs - Model VG01-045

Van Veen Grabs - Model VG01-045


Designed and built with the emphasis on strength and durability. Made out of 316 stainless steel to a high engineering finish. The Van Veen grab has a sample area of 0.045m2 (200 x 225 mm) and is available with a choice of optional lift up inspection top lids and detachable weights.

Constructional features:

    • Jaws constructed in 3 mm thick stainless steel.
    • Knuckle hinge joint linking buckets, with spot welded bolt ends for extra security.
    • Extra thick angled stainless steel cross bars for added strength.
    • 4 mm diameter stainless steel cable harness with S/S shackles
    • 4 x threaded screw holes with spot welded back studs for easy addition
      and removal of optional lead weights
    • Electropolished for added resistance to corrosion

Operation

The Van Veen grab is lowered in the open position and when it comes to rest on the sea or river bed, the release of tension on the bridle, enables the triggering bar to drop and thus the two jaws can close. Once tension is applied again to the bridle, the jaws are drawn together and a sample is taken.
