TORQUE TOOL CALIBRATION Manual, pneumatic, electric and hydraulic bolting tools are designed to apply accurate and measurable torque forces, to bolts and nuts, to ensure that the correct amount of tension is applied to maintain the integrity of the bolted joint. In most cases bolting tools are used extensively to tighten hundreds and sometimes thousands of bolts and nuts, it is therefore very important to have these tools regularly checked and tested on independently certified, torque tool calibration equipment. It is recommended that tools be checked, tested and if necessary recalibrated at least every 12 months, however in cases of extensive tool use this should even be considered more frequently than this. Hi-Force offers in-house torque tool calibration services, utilizing the best available calibration equipment, with valid, independently approved "UKAS" calibration certificates, that are regularly renewed in line with international standards and codes of practice. All torque tools tested and calibrated are issued with an individual test and calibration certificate, traceable to the UKAS certified calibration equipment used. Whether it is a simple hand torque wrench, a manual or powered torque multiplier or a hydraulic torque wrench, from Hi-Force or any other leading brand, utilizing the Hi-Force torque tool calibration service, is the best way to ensure torque tools consistently deliver accurate torque.
