Torque Tool Types | |
HAND TORQUE WRENCHES NSW ~ Hand operated torque tools measure torque using the operators own force. The operator is required to push or pull on the handle. Most tools can be preset and alert the operator with a "click" when the torque is achieved. These tools can measure in Inch & Ft Lbs & in Newton Meters. Their range can be from 10 Inch Pounds up to around 1,000 Ft Lbs. These Hand tools are predominantly used by the automotive and small manufacturing industries. An accuracy of around + or - 5% is expected however variations may occur from different users. Hand Torque wrenches offer great solutions for Applying torque to improve fastener reliability in light industry. More Info |

HAND TORQUE MULTIPLIERS NSW~ Torque Multipliers use Gearbox ratios to achieve torque multiplication. Not unlike the gearbox in a car, where the 1st gear ratio provides a torque or power advantage. Torque Multipliers offer better access, power and accuracy over impact guns and hand tools. Ratios are many, 5:1, 12:1, 15:1, etc. They work by placing a hand torque wrench in the input e.g. you apply 10Ft Lbs through a 5:1 Ratio to achieve 50 Ft Lbs output. Notes: Torque Accuracy can vary from user to user. Multipliers are generally used in light industry or in the field where there is no power. More |

PNEUMATIC TORQUE NUTRUNNERS NSW ~ These tools use compressed air to spin air motors which in turn drives a multiplier gearbox. They are best suited for Light to medium industry from around 500 to 5,000 Ft lbs. The supply air needs to be at least 40 CFM ( Cubic Feet Per Minute ) at over 80psi. The air passes through a regulator before it reaches the gun. The regulator can be adjusted to reduce the air flow. This is how the torque output is controlled. The tool will stall when the set torque is achieved. Torque readings are taken from Torque Charts showing a PSI / Torque figures. These tools are suited to applications where access is more open due to their larger size & weight. They are ideal for Truck Wheel nuts and general engineering due to their higher "free running" speed. Mill liner bolts and Flight Bar bolts are ideal applications for these tools. They operate in reverse for undoing by switching a lever. They have a torque accuracy around + or - 5% on a maintained air supply. More Info |

HYDRAULIC TORQUE WRENCHES NSW - Square Drive Series ~ These tools use a small Hydraulic Cylinder inside the tool which pushes onto a ratchet gear. The tool is driven by a High Pressure Hydraulic pump connected via flexible hoses. The pumps have a Variable pressure regulator from 1,500 to 10,000 psi . By adjusting this pressure you can control the torque output. A Torque chart is used showing Torque & Pressure figures for torque settings. Once set, the tool will stall or stop ratcheting when the pre set pressure is achieved. This model is for use with Impact Sockets. It has Square Drive Sizes from 1/2" up to 2-1/2" There are 8 tool sizes providing from 200 - 48,000 Ft Lbs ( 300 - 60,000 nm ) Hydraulic torque tools have the best torque accuracy and repeatability as they have less external variables. These tools achieve + or - 3% torque accuracy or better. Repeatability at around 1%. Hydraulic Torque tools don't rely on Human force or varying air pressures. The Hydraulic Pressure powering them is consistent and more reliable. Hydraulic torque tools offer the highest output for their size and weight. All these attributes have made them very popular. They cater from light industry right through to Heavy Industry. More Info |

HYDRAULIC TORQUE WRENCHES NSW Hex Link Cassette ~ This model uses Hex Cassettes or Ratchet Links. These are required when overhead clearance is limited, and a thinner wrench is required. They are also ideal for long studs as the stud passes through the tool. There are 6 tool sizes providing from 200 - 32,000 Ft Lbs. Hydraulic torque tools have the best torque accuracy and repeatability as they have less external variables. For These tools + or - 3% or better is expected. These Hydraulic tools offer the best size, power to weight and torque accuracy advantages, making them popular. |

IMPACT TORQUE SOCKETS & IMPACT SOCKETS NSW ~ Impact Sockets or Torque sockets are a heavy duty version of normal sockets. They feature a thicker wall and use higher grade materials and hardening to improve their strength. Recommended for High Torque applications. Torque Sockets come in 6 & 12 Point standard and deep. They can be used on Impact Guns, Torque Multipliers, Pneumatic Nut Runners, PT & RAD & Hydraulic Torque Tools. Impact Accessories include Extension bars, Reducers, Adaptors and Uni Joints. large Power Sockets from 1/2" up to 2-1/2" Square Drive. More Info |
