The new tool features a lean, stepped width design which can easily be mounted over bolts in narrow access applications.

In addition to its compact size, Enerpac says the new innovation provides “superior accuracy” with plus or minus 3% across the full stroke.

With a user-friendly design, Enerpac’s UltraSlim torque wrenches are simple to use and maintain. The incorporation of minimal moving parts allows for quick maintenance in the field, while a fast release drive unit enables easy exchange of cassettes with no tools required.

UltraSlim torque wrenches combine premium grade components with enhanced tool geometry to provide bolting professionals with one of the toughest and most durable narrow access solutions on the market.

“The new UltraSlim torque wrenches improve safety, provide more uptime and last longer than any competitive slim line torque wrench,” Enerpac global product manager, bolting, Kurt Huber said.

“With a unique compact design, exceptional accuracy and superior durability, our UltraSlim torque wrenches meet our customers’ needs in performing narrow access bolting applications while ensuring the highest quality performance.”

For increased versatility, the bi-hexagonal UltraSlim cassette design allows twice as many positioning points on a nut or bolt. A top-mounted straight handle facilitates safe and easy access to hard-to-reach fasteners. To accommodate diverse applications, an optional angled handle is also available on request from the company.

All UltraSlim torque wrenches are CE-ATEX declared for use in explosive environments and are shipped complete with a unique calibration certificate, helping to ensure accuracy and traceability.

Enerpac has 28 offices in 22 different countries and over 1000 employees.
