TORCUP TOPSIDE BOLT TENSIONING

Product catalog summary
Overview: The document provides detailed information about the THT range of bolt tensioning tools by TorcUP Inc., highlighting their features, benefits, technical specifications, and safety measures.
Features & Benefits:
  • High-quality polyurethane seals ensure reliable, leak-free operation.
  • Powerful bolt load capacity with a 15mm ram stroke.
  • Only six base tools are needed to cover bolt sizes from 3/4” to 4”.
  • Supplied with nut rotating sockets, eliminating the need for drilled nuts.
  • Includes an over-stroke pressure safety device and is manufactured from high-strength steel for durability.
  • Easy hose assembly with the TorcUP Link Hose System.
Seal Reliability: The tensioners feature polyurethane self-energizing lip seals that require no adjustment and have a lower coefficient of friction than nitrile seals, enhancing performance and longevity.
Link Hose System: This system allows multiple tensioners to be linked and loaded simultaneously, simplifying the process with a single flexible high-pressure hose assembly.
Topside Bolt Tensioning: Suitable for use on most standard flanges, including ANSI B16.5, ANSI B16.47, MSS-SP44, API-6A, and API-17D.
Technical Specifications: The document includes a detailed table of specifications for various tool models, including part numbers, stroke, weight, and dimensions.
User Safety: Safety features include a mechanism to direct escaping fluid away from the operator if the piston/ram stroke is exceeded, with a red warning indicator for maximum piston extension.

TORCUP TOPSIDE BOLT TENSIONING-1

Topside Bolt Tensioning Series: THT Range Incorporating TorcUP Bolt Load Software “The THT range of bolt tensioning tools are some of the most compact and reliable tensioners available today.” Seal Reliability Bolt Load Software Takes the complexity out of tensioner and torque calculations. Seal reliability is a fundamental requirement. All tensioners have polyurethane self-energizing lip seals requiring no adjustment. The seals ‘snap fit’ into the piston housing, remain firm and will not dislodge to Features & Benefits cause failure after prolonged use.

To overcome this problem TorcUP offer a single assembly called a ‘Link hose’. This length of flexible high pressure hose, fitted with male and female quick connect couplings at opposite ends is fast and an economical method of connecting multiple tensioners together - the number of hoses required is the same as the number of tools to be linked - a simple formula to remember.

TORCUP TOPSIDE BOLT TENSIONING-2

User Safety When using hydraulic bolt tensioners, it is important that the maximum movement of the piston/ram is not exceeded. In the unfortunate situation when stroke is exceeded, a simple failure mechanism inside most TorcUP tensioners directs any escaping fluid away from the operator and deposits it inside the device. A red warning indicator line be- comes visible as the maximum piston extension position is reached. Simplified Principle Note: for clarity the pressure hose is not show on the following diagrams.
