Then, tightening the nut createspressure, which is transmitted tothe gage through hydraulic fluid. thegage is calibrated to read directly inpounds tension.As you tighten the fastener with a hand torquewrench, the tester gage registers tension and thetorque wrench registers torque. noting both readingsat a specified point establishes the torque-tensionstandard for the joint.Test power Tool output under StandardConditions with precision test Bolt assemblies.On a day-to-day basis, how do you know your powertools are delivering consistent tightening force eachtime you use them? Easy.With a Skidmore-Wilhelm Torque-Tension Tester, youcalibrate each tool individually and keep a record of itsout-put performance. Then periodically - even everyday - check the tool against its established norm. Anydeviation in output signals the need for adjustment ormaintenance before it affects product quality.Skidmore-WilhelmHanes Supply of SC, Inc.CCISCO: 843.238.1338FAX: 843.238.8337Torque-Tension Testers forSmall, Medium, and Large ApplicationTorque-Tension Tester models are designedaccording to fastener size and type, maximum preload,and, for power tool output testing, the drivesize of the power tool. Special test bolt assembliesfor power tool testing are available for all models.If desired, any model can be ordered with a dualreadinggage that indicates tension in metric unitsas well as pounds.Large Applications:• Fastener: Bolts 1-1/4" through 2-1/2" (M32-M64)• Tension capacity: 225,000 Lbs. maximum• Tool/size: 1" to 2-1/2" square drive• Test bolt assembly: 6 sizes available: 1-1/4" - 2-1/2"Medium Applications• Fastener: High-strength bolts 1*1/8" through1-1/2" (M30-M38)• Tension capacity: 170,000 Lbs. maximum• Tool/size: 3/4" - 1-3/4" square drive• Test bolt assembly: 3 sizes available:1", 1-1/4", 1-1/2"• Fastener: Bolts 5/8" through 1-1/4" (M16-M32)• Tension capacity: 100,000 Lbs. maximum• Tool/size: 1/2" through 1-1/2" square drive• Test bolt assembly: 3 sizes available:3/4", 1", 1-1/4"• Fastener: Screws and bolts #10 through 9/16"(M5-M16)• Tension capacity: 30,000 Lbs. maximum• Tool/size: 1/4" through 3/4" square drive• Test bolt assembly: 2 sizes available: 5/8", 7/8"Model J features a separate low-range gage for easyreading over the tester’s entire operating range.Model RLModel JModel HModel K30EquipmentConsistent, accurate power tool output testing requires standard, repeatabletest conditions. Most importantly, test conditions should simulate asclosely as possible the way the tool is actually used on the job.Production fastners are poorly suited for test purposes and should not beused. They are subject to many variations, and physical changes fromrepeated tightening and retightening can adversely affect the torque-tensionrelationship.Test Bolt AssemblyTo avoid such problems and guaranteestandard power tool test conditions,Skidmore-Wilhelm makes special hardenedally steel test bolt assemblies. firstuse the appropriate-sized assembly toestablish a tool’s performance norm. Theneach time you retest the tool simply usethe same test bolt assembly and comparethe output.Use Skidmore-Wilhelm Torque-Tension Testers to Choose the RightFasteners and Consistently Tighten Them to Specifications.Check fastener strength: During design, your Skidmore-Wilhelm Torque-Tension Tester lets you perform torque-to-yield tests and torque-to-failuretests to determine the right fastener: not simply the strongest fastener, butthe least expensive fastener strong enough to secure the joint. You can spotcheck fastener quality at any time. And because you can place actual jointcomponent samples in the tester, you can study how plating, types of washers,lubrication, and other joint variables affect the amount of torque neededto produce the required tension. In this way the tester lets you establishaccurate torque-tension tightening standards.Check power tool performance: Our testers let you determine the outputof all kinds of power tools - pneumatic, electric, and hydraulic impactwrenches, and nutrunners. You can verify settings for adjustable outputpower tools, periodically check output against established norms, andensure that assembly personnel are using power tools consistently. Tool cribpersonnel or maintenance foremen: you can quickly verify the performanceof new and rebuilt power tools as well as test whether older tools needmaintenance. And because you test your power tools by actually using themin a tightening situation, you closely simulate the tool’s on-the-job operatingconditions. Skidmore-Wilhelm Torque-Tension testers ensure quality consistencyand control.30-28WWW.HANESSUPPLY.COMSmall Applications• Fastener: Machine screws #6, #8, #10, and 1/4'(M3-M6)• Tension capacity: 5,000 Lbs. maximum• Tool/size: Power screwdrivers and small impactwrenchesModel S can be bench-mounted vertically orhorizontally. Ideal for testing small fasteners.Model SAdapter SetsEach Skidmore-Wilhelm Torque-tension Tester comes complete with plateand bushing adapters that allow you to test a variety of hex head bolts andcap screws. Self-tapping screws can also be tested. For shorter lengthbolts, tapped bushings are available.Have an unusual head configuration? Skidmore-Wilhelm can make upspecial adapters. Need metric?
