IU-XL SERIES

Product catalog summary

Overview: The IU-XL Series low-clearance wrenches are designed for applications requiring minimal clearance while applying torque on the same plane as the nut. The patented design reduces the dimensions of the inline ratcheting head, making it suitable for a wide range of applications.

Specifications: The IU-XL Series offers torque capacities ranging from 100 to 50,000 foot-pounds using a 10,000 psi hydraulic pump. Standard head sizes range from ¾” to 7¼” and 19mm to 185mm across the flats, with special sizes available upon request.

Design Features: The wrench features an inclusive body and cylinder unit made from TL-T6 lightweight aircraft alloy, ensuring durability without added weight. The design includes a thinner nose radius, fitting more applications, including all 57 A.P.I flanges. A spring retaining clip allows for quick head changes.

Innovations: The IU-XL Series is the first system allowing manual relocation of swivels from the top to the back of the tool using hand tools. The slotted piston rod maintains a 90º relationship with the nut, enhancing accuracy and reducing internal moving parts.

Performance: The tools are tested and calibrated to +/- 0.03 accuracy and +/- 0.01 repeatability, traceable to N.I.S.T. standards. Nickel-plated steel quick connects allow for multi-directional hose movement without binding.

Model Specifications: The document provides detailed specifications for various models (IU-1XL to IU-50XL), including torque ranges, dimensions, and weight. Each model is tailored for specific head sizes and applications.

Head Sizes: Detailed tables list the available head sizes for each model, including ATF (across the flats) dimensions, radius, and P/R (pitch/radius) measurements in both imperial and metric units.

Catalog excerpts

IU-XL SERIES LOW-CLEARANCE WRENCH Inline ratcheting wrenches require minimum clearance while applying torque on the same plane as the nut. Our patented design reduced the dimensions of the inline ratcheting head, and now it fits almost any application. IU-XL Series capacities range from 100 to 50,000 foot pounds of torque using a 10,000 p.s.i hydraulic pump. INLINE DRIVE BODY Standard fractional head sizes from ¾” to 7¼” and 19mm to 185mm nuts across the flats. Special sizes are available, too. If you have an application you are unsure about, let us know. We can make it work. The deisgn of our wrenches has an inclusive body and cylinder unit. This makes it possible for more of our head sizes to work with more of our tools, giving you freedom in selecting your model. The cylinder is made of TL-T6 lightweight aircraft alloy. Durable, but not heavy. Reduces overall dimensions of hex head including a thinner “nose“ radius. Fits more applications, including all 57 A.P.I flanges. The spring retaining clip allows for quick and simple changing of the heads. MULTI-AXIS PORTING The IU-XL Series tools are the first and only system that allows the swivels to be manually relocated from the top of the tool to the back of the tool using only hand tools. The slotted piston rod always maintains a 90º relationship between itself and the nut. This significantly increases accuracy of the tool while simultaneously reducing the number of moving parts it has inside it. Allow hose movement without hose binding. Nickel-plated steel quick connects, with fewer moving parts, moving in every direction you might need them to -- a great improvement to other swivels in the industry. Every tool is tested and calibrated to +/- 0.03 accuracy and +/- 0.01 repeatability traceable to N.I.S.T. standards.
