An apparatus and method is provided for feeding, clamping and removing bar or tube goods in tube test presses which have a bearing surface consisting of several supporting crossbeams spaced parallel to each other, and at least two disk-like driven rotors having at least one hook-like peripheral projection spaced on at least one axis of rotation, where each axis of rotation runs crosswise to the crossbeams under their bearing surfaces, such that only hook-like peripheral extensions of the rotors project above the bearing surfaces for transporting and clamping the goods, the improvement comprising at least one tenterhook pivotable adjacent the bearing surface between a first position below the bearing surface and a second position above the bearing surface of the crossbeam and parallel to the rotor adjacent each rotor, and which, pivoted to said second position above the bearing surface during clamping, grips the goods on side opposite the adjacent rotor involved.
