Why Backup Wrenches Are Critical
Backup wrenches are vital for both operational safety and quality assurance:
Safety: They prevent the stationary component from rotating during tightening, avoiding thread damage, component distortion, or operator injury.
Efficiency: By holding the counter-nut firmly, they allow the torque wrench to apply the required torque accurately and quickly, reducing setup time and improving workflow.
Joint Integrity: They ensure the integrity of the bolted joint by guaranteeing the stationary side remains fixed, leading to a consistent and secure preload.
Product Series and Specifications
ABS offers two primary types of backup wrenches to accommodate different operational and safety requirements:
I. HFBW Open/Close Series (Standard)
These wrenches are available in various sizes and configurations (Open Series and Close Series) to ensure precise engagement with different nut and bolt setups.
