ABSTRACT:
The present invention is an element for gripping metal to be stretched by a stretcher leveler apparatus. The gripping element includes a first and preferably a second high density cast polyurethane gripping pad adapted for engagement with the metal to be stretched and a support member which can be a rectangular plate upon which the first and second gripping pads are operatively anchored. The support member having two pads is detachably mounted to the stretcher leveler apparatus either in a first orientation in which the first pad is positioned for engagement with the metal to be stretched or a second orientation in which the second pad is positioned for engagement with the metal to be stretched. Preferably, the support member is a plate having a first support surface upon which the first gripping pad is chemically bonded and a second support surface upon which the second gripping pad is chemically bonded. The support surfaces are disposed on opposite sides of the plate and in a parallel relationship. The gripping pads are preferably cast in situ on the support member. Preferably, at least one threaded hole is disposed at either end of the support member for allowing attachment to the stretcher leveler apparatus with threaded fasteners.
