We briefly discuss the concept of contact robustness and of grasp robustness, pointing out that the former is an easily computable but overconservative sufficient condition for the latter. Some experimental results on a simple gripper, the so\&ndash;called {\textquoteleft}{\textquoteleft}Instrumented Talon\&$\#$39;\&$\#$39;, are reported as an illustration.</p>
