Imperial-newton tools

Our non-sparking impact sockets are made heavy duty for impact use, and have been evaluated and certificated by an independent laboratory to comply with applicable ATEX Directives for use in flammable or explosive environments. All of our Titanium, Stainless and non-sparking alloys are intended for specific life-safety applications only. They provide critical benefits such as preventing injury or death, but are all less strong, and significantly more expensive than regular heat treated black steel.

Please select STEEL unless your application is for life-safety critical uses, or corrosive and magnetic environments. Contact Sitemap. Selecting a wrench Selecting a socket Specifications.

Hydraulic torque wrenches by design will NOT lunge forward when a jammed nut or bolt suddenly spins freely, unlike other tool designs which can result in backlash and other dangerous conditions where the tool can behave like a wound spring let go suddenly.

Hydraulic torque wrenches are a safer and alternative to these methods offering much higher accuracy. Precise and methodical are the words for this type of tool, and nothing is better for easily and accurately working with large nuts and bolts safely. Operator error is virtually eliminated with the use of a torque gauge, instead of requiring the operator to perform pressure to torque conversion like competing systems.

The handy torque gauge used in these systems displays torque units Ft-Lbs, KgM, Nm , so there is no need for charts or pressure calculations which get lost or present possibilities for error.

These systems provide for accurate torque to be applied across work shifts and operators with the least likelihood of operator error. Use of a hydraulic torque wrench can reduce the propensity of operator heat stroke from over exertion in hot weather conditions.

Hydraulic wrenches reduce danger from sudden breakage or slippage of fasteners.
