Grips – a global handle for Sinclair & Rush

As well as the existing practical and creative range of GripWorks hand grip designs from Sinclair & Rush – off the shelf, custom and branded – we are pleased to announce a massive new addition to the family.

Following the acquisition of Hunt-Wilde by our American parent company, we now extend our grip manufacturing solutions to include all of the pioneering tooling and design innovations developed by HW since 1946.

That’s when they started manufacturing injection moulded parts, primarily for cycle handlebar grips. As US bicycle manufacturing moved offshore, Hunt-Wilde grew the capacity for further diversification into other markets – lawn & garden; sports & leisure; industrial tooling; medical and general engineering.

To keep up with opportunity and development, HW created the facilities and technology to service ‘mass customisation’. Now, this tooling, methodology and product range sit alongside the technologies and skills of Sinclair & Rush’s own 60 years of experience.

The injection moulded grips from Hunt-Wilde form the perfect complement to our extensive line of dip moulded and foam hand grips.

Let’s introduce you too our new range, well, part of the range of injection moulded grips:

Please meet, from left to right, the Straight Grip; followed by the Classic Finger Grip; then the Rib-Finned Grip; next we have the Honeycomb Grip; and finally the Flanged Tapered Grip.

Then, when you add colours to the basic black, standard colours being red, blue, white, green. Yellow and gray, you can choose from an extensive range that includes these – but this is just a selection:
…and:
Each grip has a practical as well as aesthetic and ergonomic quality to add value to any OEM application. And those applications are about as varied as the range.

Such is the breadth of tooling and manufacturing process available to us, all accompanied by an extensive depth of experience and skill, that believe us when we say that if it is not here, we’ll create it just for you. Sinclair & Rush pride ourselves on providing custom moulding solutions to satisfy any manufacturing / product need.

We hope then that you’ll agree when we boast that, with the acquisition of the Hunt-Wilde grip line, GripWorks can provide virtually any grip solution available in the market.
