Ultrasonic Load Monitoring Staying at the forefront of Ultrasonics technology has resulted in Hydratight developing the BoltScope II and more recently the BoltScope Pro. BoltScope Pro & BoltScope II ultrasonically measures the actual load in the fastener at point of loading and throughout the service life of the fastener. The technology of the equipment is based on a well-known and reliable PulseEcho measuring technique. A transducer is placed on one end of the fastener and generates a pulse which travels down the length of the fastener. The pulse is reflected off the other end and the echo...

BoltScope Pro BoltScope Pro is a new addition to Hydratight’s Ultrasonic range. This bolt load monitoring device is smaller, more mobile and user friendly. The pocket sized BoltScope Pro enhances all the existing technologies and is packaged to work on the harshest and most complex applications, producing the high levels of accuracy required to complete the joint integrity solution. The BoltScope Pro is the first cost effective, ultrasonic monitoring device to measure bolt load, elongation, stress and percentage of strain utilising nanosecond technology. Loaded and un-loaded bolt readings...

BoltScope II BoltScope II has set the benchmark of accuracy in fastener load monitoring over the past ten years, it is now established and recognised as the market standard. BoltScope II is designed to verify any application that requires close load tolerances on fasteners. The instrument is particularly useful for verifying manufacturing processes or conformity of bolt tightening processes. The BoltScope II measures bolt strain using the well proven principle of measuring the Time of Flight of an ultrasonic signal. The BoltScope II displays the load, stress or elongation of a fastener...
