We’ve found it – a material that will not crack or break.
To
make sure, I placed a grip made from it in boiling water for 10 minutes,
immediately put the grip in the freezer and left it overnight. The next morning I placed the grip on my
garage floor and beat it with a hammer. I could not even make a scratch. Just to
make sure, I went through the entire process again. THIS MATERIAL WILL NOT BREAK.
Its present use is about 3,000 feet down in oil
wells. Drillers were having trouble with a part breaking. At that depth it was expensive and time
consuming to replace. Therefore this
product was developed. It’s hard to get and so far we have only been able to
purchase it in black and cream color, but cream color is scarce, so most of our
grips are now only in black. As more
products start being made of this material I think it will be available in
colors.
Now, we are trying to find a suitable material for a pad. Don’t give up. We will find it.
