As a recognised world leader in both bolt tensioner design and the provision of bolt working services and
solutions, we know from experience that the equipment you purchase not only has to function reliably, it has to be
easy to use yet tough enough to withstand the most arduous of conditions. It also has to be fast and accurate.

PS Series - The ultimate bolt tensioning solution.

This product range has been designed using state-of-the-art CAD techniques to bring you the most advanced bolt
tensioner on the market. Safety, quality, toughness and reliability are built in.

To ensure that the tools you buy meet our own exacting requirements, during the design process every prototype
was put through finite element stress analysis, rigorous cyclic testing and strain gauging.

The result…the PS series. 7 4

Key features

 Overstroke Eliminator 1 1 2

A relief valve has been incorporated into the 5

piston to prevent overstroking, thus
eliminating seal damage and improving 3
operator safety. When the maximum stroke
is exceeded, the overstroke relief valve
bleeds off the water-based hydraulic fluid 6
safely within the tool.

Rapid Power Return Stroke 2

9
(Improved time saving)
Automatic, spring-assisted piston retraction
assists in reducing the duration of 8
tensioning programmes.

6 Load Cell
Misalignment Compensation 3

}
7 Puller Sleeve
The unique floating piston design allows a 8 Bridge Adaptor Kit
3-degree tit (in any direction) without loss of
9 Nut Rotating Disk
load, eliminating piston seizure or damage
to the cylinder bore and aiding tool retraction.

Piston Stroke Indicator 4

The integral piston stroke indicator allows piston stroke to be viewed, measured and controlled.

Seals 5

Low friction, anti-roll/non spiralling seals and rigid backup rings are incorporated within a unique piston/cylinder
design for improved life and reliability.

Adaptor Kit 7 8 9

The interchangeability of adaptor kits (bridges, nut rotating disc and puller sleeve) enables a number of different
bolt sizes to be tensioned using a single load cell.

Nut Rotating Disc 9

A range of nut rotating discs are incorporated to eliminate the need for, and preparation of pre-drilled nuts.

Bespoke Design Service

Should you have an application where it is not possible to use the standard range of tools, then we invite you
to draw on our extensive experience in providing tailor-made solutions to problems involving bolted joints.
