Pneumatic Torque Wrenches - Radial Torque Tools
Pneumatic torque wrenches, which work on air and not on electricity, are already used in countless industries. These tools provide efficiency and ease of use while maintaining accurate operation.
What are Pneumatic tools?
When talking about pneumatic tools, we are talking about tools that work on compressed air. The pressure exerted by the air in the pneumatic cylinder is converted into kinetic energy, which enables the torque wrench to tighten bolts and nuts at the right moment.
The advantage of pneumatic power
More and more industries are switching to pneumatic tools. Both a double-acting cylinder, which exerts force in both directions, and single-acting pneumatic cylinders are used for numerous applications. Just think of the automotive industry or the shipping industry. This is because pneumatic tools, such as torque wrenches, have many advantages:
- Pneumatic tools do not work on electricity and can therefore be used anywhere.
- There is no risk of the device overheating.
- High accuracy and great power.
