A3 HydraJac

Description


 The A3 Modular HydraJac Stud Tensioner provides accurate and versatile tensioning of bolts and studs whilst being fast, simple and safe to use. The Hydrajac utelises a loadcell with an adapter kit so as the one tool can be used for a range of stud size whilst only having to change the adapter kit.

The HydraJac uses hydraulic pressure to tension the bolt to the exact load required. Once the application has been tensioned, the nut is wound down the thread to retain the load. The HydraJac is then de-pressurised, released and ready to use again.
 
Any number of HydraJacs can be interlinked to provide even amounts of simultaneous tension over multiple studs or bolts as required.
 
Produced from high strength alloy steel, HydraJac Stud Tensioners are made in standard configurations. They can also be made to suit the requirements of a specific application.

Features

Although smaller and lighter than many competitive types, HydraJac Stud Tensioners are capable of high application forces. The higher forces generated by HydraJac devices permit their use with bolts of very high tensile strength, for example, in bolting of highly stresses assemblies or those prone to destructive vibration.

A3 Hydrajac can come with spring return or manual return feature. when purchased with the spring return feature there is very little physical effort required to do the job at hand.

HydraJacs are designed for durability and manufactured with ease of servicing, with readily available spare parts.

The hydrajac provides the following advantages:

  • Reduces maintenance down time.
  • Improves safety on the job by eliminating hammer tightening.
  • Gives reliable and precise tensioning
  • Is user friendly - fast to fit and remove.
  • Requires little physical effort.
  • Is ideal for confined spaces or difficult locations.
  • Multiple tensioning for leak-free flange makeup.

As well as the standard range of A3 hydrajacs specials hydrajacs can be designed to suit your requirements such as the M460 hydrajacs shown below designed for a forging press.

Industry Application


Applications include:

  • Mining and Quarrying
  • Marine
  • Power Generation
  • Agricultural
  • Structural
  • Heavy Equipment
    in general industry
  • Chemical Plants
  • Method


      The above drawings show the hydrajac being pressurised therefor stretching the stud then the nut rotator being wound down with the nut and tensioning the stud. the pressure is then released and the spring packs where provide return the tool to the home position and the tool is the ready for service.

    Tool Boxes

     Technofast can custom design tool boxes to suit your requirements. The tool boxes are made with lifting lugs and forklift channels for easy lifting and can be fitted with your choice of pnuematic or solid wheels to make moving them around the worksite a breeze.

     Because A3 hydrajacs can be used for various sizes we can limit the number of tools required to carry out tensioning of entire workpeice with one tool box or the use of multiple tool boxs for large or complex jobs.

     The photo to the right is of a toolbox design for use on a crusher to tension all the required studs on the crusher with both a pnuematic pump and hand pump for when compressed air is not available for use.
