Obtain The Hydraulic Bolt Tensioner To Provide Better Comfort
Large-diameter bolts can be accurately and quickly preloaded to high tensions using a hydraulic bolt tensioning tool, which is a fast, simple, and safe procedure in contrast to impact wrenches and hydraulic bolt tensioner where friction is a common enemy. It does not require torque or forceful nut or bolt twisting. It is difficult to think that a bolt or stud, which is quite solid, may serve as a spring when you grip them.
If the load in the studs is uneven from stud to stud, too high, or too low, the joint may fail. The easy and practical solutions to this issue are tensioners and hydraulic stud and bolt tensioning systems. The tightening technique will assist you in managing the substantial expenses brought on by improperly tightened studs.
Accurate And Repeatable Stud Loading
Hydraulic studs and bolt tensioners and their theory and application to tightening are straightforward. A unique kind of hydraulic cylinder is a hydraulic stud tensioner. The hydraulic cylinder’s area and the pump’s hydraulic pressure directly affect the tension that is applied to a stud. Because these are factors that we closely monitor, the stud tensioning is extremely precise. As a result, you can quickly and consistently load and tighten studs with accuracy thanks to hydraulic tensioners.
The Hydraulic Pumps that run on air or by hand are intrinsically resistant to explosions. Thread galling and seizing are eliminated using hydraulic stud tensioning. The threads and nut contact surfaces do not experience the high contact pressures that lead to galling when hydraulic tensioners are employed.
Uniform Stud Loading
It’s crucial to load each stud evenly, mainly when using gaskets in an application. When it comes to applications involving several studs, HTI suggests using multiple Hydraulic Stud Tensioners. The pump and these hydraulic tensioners are internally attached. Every stud has the same tension as the hydraulic pressure rises, causing the flange to come together uniformly and simultaneously.
Actually, that is precisely what the fasteners in a bolted joint do. To ensure that the joint is securely fastened together when it is put into operation, it must be stretched during assembly with sufficient force.
Ease Of Use And Safety
The power-to-weight ratio of hydraulic tensioners and hydraulic stud and bolt tensioners is high. Compared to torque tools, they are heavier, less cumbersome, and far more straightforward to operate. One operator can handle most applications with minimal effort. For the same stud size and tightening capacity, the weight of any one of these components is typically much less than the weight of the hydraulic wrench and socket. Compared to bolt warmers hydraulic bolt tensioning equipment is safer to use and quieter.
Conclusion:
An annular jack that fits over the bolt and nut that has to be tightened is called a hydraulic bolt tensioner. The jack pulls on the bolt’s end while pressing up against the fastened joint. A tension equivalent to the load created by the jack develops in the bolt’s shank since the force produced by the jack is applied straight to the bolt’s end. It is feasible to twist the nut with zero torque until it is tight while the jack is applying tension. After that, the jack’s applied load is released, and a significant portion of the bolt, depending on its diameter and length, is maintained in the bolt shank.
