Torque Safe
Torque Safe is a safety switch which has been designed for hydraulic torque wrenches. This provides a safety feature for the technician handling the hydraulic torque head positioning for use. This safety feature has been designed for the handling technician, preventing potential hand crushing injuries. Using a hydraulic torque wrench often requires two operators due to positioning of bolts, weight of the hydraulic torque head and sockets. One operator controls the on-off switch and the other operator positions the hydraulic torque head.
Depending on the maintenance or break down task there are often multiple jobs performed in the same areas. When performing these tasks, the working environment can be harsh, due to noisy, repetitive and slow conditions. These factors have caused distractions and break downs in communication between both operators performing the bolting task, resulting in severe injuries.
"Torque Safe minimizes risk and exposure to hazard at the source."
MEETS ALL STANDARDS
Designed hand-in-hand with a leader in hydraulic tool production, and a major mining companies, the Torque Safe helps prevent injury to technicians without affecting the operation or the torque settings. Once fitted with Torque Safe. the torque wrench becomes a safer, more manageable tool, reducing the potential for hand injuries and increasing productivity by providing greater confidence for users. Torque Safe is a revolution in hydraulic tool safety that no torque wrench operator should be without.
Two Models — Same Safety
Tool Mounted
ln-Line Version
Tool Mounted Version
"Increase Safety and upgrade the swivel on your tool at the same time. Minimizes risk and exposure to hazard at the source."
What happens to your existing swivel? We use it... We attach it to the end of the Torque Safe swivel.
Now you will have:
1. The Torque Safe Safety Lever system
2. Your tool now has a swivel system that now rotates on three axes (instead of two) thus giving you greater application accessibility
3. Your Torque Safe Safety swivel has a pressure relief system in case of over- pressurization on the return stroke, leading to longer tool life, increased operator safety and less damage to internal tool parts.
ln-Line Version
"Available in either "Reverse DEAD MAN" for hands free operation or "True DEAD MAN" Safety Lever."
Benefits of an in—line model:
1. The Torque Safe can be used on hydraulic wrench models that do not have a swivel.
2. The in—Iine model is better adapted for smaller hydraulic wrenches where the tool mounted model may be cumbersome.
3. True hands free reverse dead man keeps hands off the tool when pressurised.
4. In addition to eliminating hand crush accidents, it will reduce the chance of oil injection incidents.
5. Safety locks on safe position until released. Acts as a tag-out lock out system for the hydraulic wrench, protecting the operator from accidental actuation of the wrench.
