AVANTI HYTORC HYDRAULIC TORQUE WRENCH

Hydraulic torque wrench AVANTI, technologies of the AVANTI range

Since the beginning of the year 2000, the AVANTI torque wrench has been the most versatile tool for all high-stakes operations, as it also allows torque and angle tightening, with detection of the elastic limit with the adapted HYTORC hydraulic pumps.

One piece body and double acting cylinder

The AVANTI hydraulic wrench is made with a monobloc frame in aluminium alloy which contains the double-acting 700 bar cylinder and the mechanical drive part.

Anti-Return Device

The AVANTI hydraulic torque wrench is equipped with an anti-kickback system that ensures more productivity in your tightening operations.

Indirect clutch levers

The AVANTI wrench may be jammed on a bolt at the end of the tightening process due to the Anti-Return system so that it is impossible to remove it to move on to the next bolt. For this situation, the AVANTI wrenches are equipped with 2 indirect levers that can be operated without load and that allow to disengage the mechanism on a pressure impulse and release the hydraulic wrench without shock or effort.

Fluted square

The driving square of the AVANTI hydraulic torque wrench is splined and simply needs to be switched from the tightening to the loosening function. When there is little room for the key to pass through, a direct socket can be used in place of the grooved square drive.

2 axis hydraulic turret

The double swivel connection between the hydraulic key and the twin hoses is a very important point in terms of ergonomics and safety. The fact that the AVANTI wrench can be freely positioned with a turret that can be rotated on 2 axes at 360° x 180° helps the operator to easily find the most suitable position for his operation. Hoses should not be pinched or twisted to avoid compromising their integrity when under pressure.

Orientable Coaxial Reaction Arm

To create torque, the reaction arm is essential because otherwise the wrench turns around the bolt without producing any effort. You need to rely on a solid, fixed object to develop torque, both when tightening and loosening. The AVANTI Hydraulic Torque Wrench Coaxial Reaction System rethinks the idea of a torque wrench reaction arm because it allows the tool body to be positioned around the bolt regardless of the orientation of the arm. Grooves around the driving square allow both the reaction arm to be positioned against a fulcrum and the frame to be oriented independently through 360°. If this possibility is essential for working on steel structures or mechanically welded structures with bolts close to multiple reinforcements, it is very much appreciated by operators for all types of operations because they have better control over the configuration of the clamping system and can balance it at their convenience.

Operation without reaction arm

The hydraulic torque wrench AVANTI can be used without its reaction arm to tighten to the torque for more safety of the operators (with washers HYTORC Z Washer or nuts HYTORC Clamp NUT. The clamping quality is also significantly improved with axial clamps because no shear stress is introduced into the bolt.
