Norbar introduces two compact torque multipliers

Norbar Torque Tools has introduced the HandtorqueT HT-92 and Handtorque HT-119 gearboxes for bolt tightening in confined spaces. Both combine new materials, better traceability and are the newest additions to Norbar’s new Compact Series of Handtorque multipliers.

Key features of the multipliers include a stainless steel body, a calibration certificate, compact dimensions, lower weight and higher torque output. Compared with the closest existing model from Norbar’s current range (the HT-30), the HT-92 is smaller in diameter (92mm versus 108mm), lighter (5.4kg versus 7kg) and has a 1,000Nm higher torque output at 4,000Nm.

The HT-119 with fitted reaction plate is 3.2kg lighter than the HT60, the closest model in the existing Norbar range, but has a 1,000Nm higher torque output at 7,000Nm.

Every HT-92 and HT-119 will be supplied with a traceable calibration certificate stating its exact ratio. The nominal ratio for the HT-92 and HT-119 will be 25:1 and the calibration certificate will demonstrate that this performance guarantee is delivered within a tolerance band of +/- 4 percent by stating the exact ratio for every product delivered.

Both multipliers come with a new style operator’s manual, carry case and are in the new Norbar branding.
