Airbac tensioners

Topside bolt tensioning

The patented Airbac range of Tentec topside bolt tensioning tools consist of 6 base tools covering bolt sizes from 3/4” to 4” (M20 to M100). The tools are designed to fit on to most ANSI B16.5, ANSI B16.47 Series 1, MSS-SP44, API-6A and API-17D flanges.

The patented Airbac piston retract technology can also be incorporated into our custom tensioner designs ensuring that customers who have unique applications can also benefit from operational time savings

Benefits 

Piston return more than three times as fast as spring assisted tensioners

A 20% weight saving versus spring assisted equivalents reduces operator fatigue.

Enhanced corrosion protection for harsh environments.

Identical hydraulic pressure areas, load outputs, and MWP (1500 bar) as the CTST range.

Easier and less frequent maintenance than spring assisted tensioners.
