Extreme Torque Wrench
Our "PATENTED" RT-Series riser tool is a hydraulic speed/torque wrench combination, designed for use during make-up or break-out of any flange bolted marine sub-sea riser. With the push of hand held button, the RT-Series riser tool spins the bolt down, and then automatically completes the torque to a preset limit via the ratcheting operation when making-up. When breaking-out the tool does the exact opposite, using the ratcheting operation to break the bolt loose enough to spin out. Several companies using our hydraulic torque wrench tools have recorded make-up and break-out times of less than 2 minutes per flange! With recorded times like this, the tools literally pay for themselves in time saved after running or pulling only a few hundred joints of riser!!!
High Speed - Single bolt make-up or break-out in seconds…Reduces operating time and saves money.
Extreme Torque - Torque capacity to 42,300 foot pounds,
Hands Free - Remote hand held pushbutton allows safe hands free operation.
2-1/2" Square Drive - Use with multiple standard size square drive impact sockets or in-house modified specialty sockets. Easily converts from make-up to break-out allowing effective use of tool for either application.
Nickel Coated - Resists corrosion.
Reaction Bar - We offer both inline and drop down reaction bars.
Ergonomic - Using the tools with our overhead spring balancers can reduce the weight to as low as 1 lb.! This significantly reduces operator fatigue.
Calibrated - Every tool is tested and calibrated to +/- .03 accuracy, traceable to N.I.S.T., and Torq/Lite calibrates all of their tools FREE for the life of the tool.
Complete Package - Available with overhead balancers, dual control console, sockets and aluminum storage containers.
