When to Use a Pneumatic Torque Wrench

01/27/2016 11:00 AM

Pneumatic torque wrenches call to mind the old Timex slogan: they take a licking and keep on ticking. These wrenches are known for their durability. As MaxPro Corporation President Tom Macey said recently, workers using the wrenches to build bridges “can drop it off a bridge and pick it up and start working again.” Pneumatic […]

When to Use a Hydraulic Torque Wrench

01/20/2016 09:00 AM

Power plants. Steel mills. Pipelines. These are some of the places where you’ll find hydraulic torque wrenches hard at work. Hydraulic torque wrenches operate using a pump driven by either electric or pneumatic power. They are industrial strength wrenches able to exert a powerful amount of torque to a large bolt head. With pneumatic and […]

The Difference Between Torque and Tension

12/30/2015 09:30 AM

In the debate over torque and tension, there’s no easy way to declare a winner. Rather, it’s a question that needs to be taken on a case-by-case basis. “You want to analyze your bolted joints to determine when you need torque or tension,” Bill Washington, director of business development at FASTORQ told Wind Systems magazine.

Torque Wrenches vs. Tensioners

12/23/2015 09:00 AM

Proper bolt tightening is crucial to the safety and efficiency of most mechanical devices, and torque wrenches and bolt tensioners are among the most common means of tightening large bolts. In most cases, bolts wind up under more stress and need to provide more clamping force as the equipment grows more powerful or heavier. When […]

17025: Industrial Torque Wrench Calibration

12/09/2015 10:00 AM

Torque = force x distance This equation is the basis for all torque calibration and testing. But who tests the testers? If you use an outside laboratory for industrial torque wrench calibration, it’s important to find one that has ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation. ISO/IEC 17025 was first developed in 1999 by the International Organization for Standardization […]

How To Choose The Right Heavy Duty Torque Tool

12/03/2015 02:00 PM

Any heavy industrial application that involves turning threaded fasteners – that is, nuts and bolts – comes with two questions. 1. Can the tool fasten tightly enough to prevent parts from moving and achieve the proper seal, without going beyond the fastener’s elasticity level? 2. Can the tool remove the fasteners successfully after long periods […]
