DURABILITY: The highest quality hand tools are made from the highest quality materials by highly skilled machinists. A less expensive tool that does not last will cost more In lost time, repair, replacements, and aggravation. The investment made for purchases of hydraulic wrench systems offer the user many years of trouble free service and provide lasting value.
The materials used in our product provide long service life. We use high strength steel for all stressed components since it is so much stronger than aluminum.

All of our wrench housings and power heads are nickel-plated, providing the ultimate in durability and corrosion protection.
Our design of the HTS wrench is elegantly simple, with only three moving parts, featuring our NEVER-LOCK pawl system.
Our standard hydraulic power head has flexible lead hoses instead of troublesome swivels which cause many modes of failure among our competitors.

Every wrench design must survive a minimum of 10.000 full load, full stroke cycles. Our independent testing and use of the HTS wrenches confirm that they are among the best products offered in the industry.

CONVERTIBILITY: Many bolting applications offer sufficient space above the nut to allow the user to operate a square drive and socket. Other applications have very tight clearances above the nut, which require a low clearance, or hex wrench, to take the place of the square drive and socket. The design of our HTS family of hydraulic wrenches protects your investment by utilizing the same hydraulic power-head for either the square drive wrench or the low clearance hex wrench. The operator in the field can easily perform the conversion from a square drive to a low clearance hex tool and back to a square drive. Square drive wrenches work about 80% of industrial applications. The convertibility of the HTS Square Drive wrench to a Rex Drive wrench allows working on up to 99% of industrial bolting applications without investing in a second wrench system for the low clearance work. Without a sacrifice in size, fit, or performance, the HTS wrench makes owning a truly convertible tool less expensive than other wrench systems.

LONG-TERM RELIABILITY: The design of the HTS hydraulic wrench, featuring THE GENIUS OF THREE MOVING PARTS reduces the complexity while improving the accuracy and maintainability of the system. Mechanical equipment requires service during its lifetime, and if the user is afraid or unable to take the tool apart to service it, failure is imminent. If the user Is unable to easily reassemble the tool, the parts end up In a heap in the corner of he shop. Before you buy your hydraulic wrench, ask all of your suppliers to TAKE THE HYDROTECH HTS CHALLENGE™:
"With a blindfold on, take the tool apart and reassemble it properly!"

NOTE TO NEW USERS OF HYDRAULIC WRENCHES: Before you buy another wrench! let us put you In contact with one of the experienced users of our HTS hydraulic wrench. Durability and reliability may not mean much to the first-time user, but experienced operators will emphasize these factors when determining the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO). This TCO evaluation will help you purchase the right tool the first time!

HTS SQUARE DRIVE SETS (SDS)
A square drive set (SDS) offers the user a complete package, which when attached to a hydraulic power unit (console), enables tightening and loosening bolts with a socket driven by the square drive. The SDS package includes the hydraulic powerhead with attached lead hoses and coupling; reaction arm, which fits over the spline on the powerhead; and the square drive wrench. Buying the set, as a package, will offer cost saving over buying the components separately. They are designated by the part number HTS (X) such as HTS (4) SDS

HTS POWERHEADS

The hydraulic powerhead may be purchased as a separate component, which includes attached lead hoses, couplings and reaction arm. Each powerhead is also shipped with the socket head cap screws and Allen wrench for attaching a wrench for attaching a wrench to the powerhead, and a color-coded gauge overlay to allow direct torque readoul from the pressure gauge of the console. A small container of 503 lubricant is also supplied with each powerhead to allow the user to lubricate the components of the wrench and powerhead, which may require lubrication periodically. They are designated by the part number HTS (X) such as HTS4. An available powerhead option for use exclusively with low clearance hex wrenches is the” No-Spline” version. It offers a cost savings by eliminating the spline on the powerhead. As a result, the reaction arm is omitted, which is not typically required for low clearance hex applications. The “No-Spline” versions are designated by part number HTS (X) NS such as HTS4NS

HTS SQUARE DRIVE WRENCHES

The square drive wrench may be purchased as a separate component, but it must be attached to an HTS powerehead before it can be used. The square drive wrenches are designated by the part number HTS (X) S such as HTS4S. In order to drive socket-head caps-screws, we can provide splined male hex drives, which take the place of line square drive component of the wrench.

HTS LOW CLEARANCE HEX WRENCHES

Low clearance hex wrenches are purchased as separate items, and have been designed to fit nearly every application in the bolting environment. Use of high strength steel in the nickel-plated wrench housing offers the very small nose radius and very thin profile which solve the demands of the low clearance bolting applications. As a result, while there are more than 50 different “families” of hex wrenches available, each is designed to fit one of the HTS powerheads. Hex wrenches are designated by part numberHTS (X) H (YYY), such as HTS4H107, (YYY) indicates the measurements across the flats of the nut, with the first digit representing a measurement in inches, and the last two digits representing a measurement in 1/16ths of an inch. HTS4H107 is a hex wrench which will attach to the HTS4 powerhead and turn a nut which measures 1-7/16” across the flats. Metric hex wrenches are designated in millimeters, followed by an M, such as HTS4H7OM. While the standard powerheads are shipped with reaction arms, applications which exclusively require low clearance hex wrenches permit the user to save money by purchasing the “No-Spline” version of the powerhead. The “No-Spline” powerhead eliminates the spline and the reaction arm, which are typically not used with low clearance hex wrenches. The “No-Spline” versions are designated by part number HTS (X)-NS, such as HTS4-NS.

FITS ON THE APPLICATION:

Which manufacture the HTS family of hydraulic wrenches from high quality, high strength, through-hardened steels. Our housings and internal moving parts are precision machined to very exact tolerances. Use of high strength materials and precision machining allows us to construct the smallest possible wrench capable of producing the greatest possible torque values.
