TONE Shear Wrench


OPERATING METHODS
Insert bolt into the work, then put washer, turn nut through to make primary tightening.
(Fig.1) Place bolt thru hole in the joining members. Attach washer & run up nut finger tight to the working members. Fit the inner socket firmly over the bolt tip (spline). Engage the outer socket over the nut by pushing the wrench. Pull lever switch to on. The outer socket rotates the nut until the torque control groove in the spline shears off, thereby achieving proper bolt tension. Turn off wrench when bolt tip (spline) shears off. Pull the wrench back to remove outer socket from the nut. Pull the eject lever on the wrench to discharge the severed bolt tip (spline) from the inner socket.

TIPS & PROBLEM SOLVING SOLUTIONS
STAYING OUT OF TROUBLE AT THE JOB SITE
I. VERIFY BOLT TENSION AT THE JOB SITE
A) B) C) D) Review the basic calibrator set up as described for a bolt tension calibrator such as a Skidmore-Wilhelm. Be sure that the unit is in calibration and that adapters for tension control bolts are in the unit. Review the instructions for use of the calibrator and test the assembly. It is recommended that the test procedure be performed three times, each time with a new fastener set selected from the same lot intended to be used in the actual bolted connection. The actual number of tests is at the discretion of the inspector.

II. INSTALLATION PROBLEMS


A) Bolt breaks at the threaded portion before the pintails shears off? Answer: Most likely the torque co-efficiency value has become lower. Possible Causes: 1) Storage conditions allowing exposure to rain, water, moisture, high humidity, temperatures over 140F or similar environmental conditions. 2) Lubrication of the product beyond as delivered condition from the factory. (Use of oil, grease, or wax on the product components at the job site) 3) Adhesion of oil, paint, mill scale, dirt burrs, or foreign material on the faying surfaces which may allow rotation of the bolt, or rotation of the washer with the nut during the tightening operation. 4) Not properly making the connection snug tight before final wrench tightening which may allow the bolt to rotate. (Same as common hex bolt) 5) Possible misalignment of the connection surfaces that may prevent proper contact of the head and faying surface. 6) Exposure to the environment over an extended period before final tightening. B) Pintail breaks at the shear groove before joint connection is made or before specified fastener tension is achieved. Answer: Most likely the torque coefficiency value has become higher. Possible Causes: 1) Storage and handling conditions allowing sand, dirt or other foreign material to accumulate on the threads of the bolt or nut. 2) Rough handling of the fasteners that would cause nicks or gouges on the bolt and nut. 3) Exposure to environmental conditions that cause rust to form on the threads of the bolt, nut or washer face. 4) Failure to follow AISC procedures for initial tightening in bringing all plies of the joint into firm contact before final tightening. (ie, trying to draw the distorted plies together and shearing the pintail before the plies are in contact rather than sequentially tightening, or using fit up bolts to draw them together) On a T.C. bolt, the pintail will shear off when too great a torque is applied. Whereas a hex bolt may be torqued beyond the plastic limit of the bolt without the knowledge of the installer when pulling the distorted steel together.

III. CAUSE OF WRENCH PROBLEMS (See wrench booklet for instructions)


A) Pintail does not discharge from socket. 1) Check inner socket for abrasions or upsets. Remove and replace socket 2) Check inner socket for rust, sand, dirt, oil or other foreign material caused by poor handling or care in the field. Clean inner socket and replace if necessary. 3) Check bolt pintail for foreign material as a result of poor handling in the field. Remove foreign material from pintail, or discard the T.C. assemblies that are contaminated. DO NOT remove lubrication from as received products nor re-lubricate. 4) Check ejector pin and spring for contamination. Disassemble and clean components. Replace spring if broken, and pin if worn. 5) Check sockets for wear. Replace if necessary. B) Socket does not engage properly with pintail or nut. 1) Check serrations of the socket for wear. Replace sockets if necessary. 2) Check socket size to be sure correct size for the fastener is being used. An oversized socket will wear faster and create tightening problems.

Simple Torqon Electric


TORQON ELECTRIC ADJUSTABLE TORGUE CONTROL WRENCH SR31E, SR51E, SR71E for Hexagonal Bolts
Torque control functions in both directions. Non-impact, very smooth and high precision wrench of a new design. Simple to set targeted torque and easy and comfortable to operate. No separate control unit, as the torque control device is built into the main body. The wrench design is compact, light in weight and wellbalanced. Socket with reaction bar turns independently to a certain angle to make it easier to insert socket into the nut. Main body will stand still during the movement of the reaction bar until it makes contact with opposing resistance i.e. another bolt or the structure.
