RANGE OF HYDRAULIC BOLT TENSIONERS

2 Why Tension? Safe, reliable and repeatable, the use of hydraulic tensioners has many advantages over other less accurate tightening methods: Direct: Tension is applied directly to stretch the bolt, so we don’t need to fight against friction or losses. Accurate: The applied load is controlled very accurately, because it is directly proportional to the pressure applied to the tensioner. Calculated: The load transfer factor is calculable, helping to give the correct residual load. Fast: Operation of tooling and improved accuracy reduces time required to retighten the load. Versatile: Tensioning...
