Multi stage bolt tensioners

Wind Multi Stage Hydraulic Tensioners

ABS Multi-Stage Bolt Tensioners are small hydraulic stud tools made to get very high preload in tight spaces.

At first made for wind turbine bolts and slewing rings, ABS took these Duo-series tensioners for important flange and structural fastenings all over Saudi Arabia’s oil & gas power and industrial areas. Their slim design that splits on top makes putting tools in nacelles or overhead headers easier— saving time making things safer and improving joint reliability.

Key Advantages

Slim, high-load profile: Made to reach bolts deep inside flanges that are hard to get at using a low radial cross-section— perfect for turbine nacelles or tight pipeline headers.

Multi-stage piston system: Gives safe pre-loads on big stud bolts without needing large tools.

Spring-loaded gear-driven nut run-down: Makes getting the reaction nut on faster while cutting down operator tiredness. A positive noise-lock lets you know it’s seated right.

Over-stroke limiter and auto piston return: Stops seal damage when tensioning; next cycles start quickly and as expected.

Dual hydraulic ports: Twin-port models let you gang three or more tensioners off one hydraulic pump to tension at the same time.

 

Why Gulf Industries Trust ABS

ABS Multi-Stage tensioners meet Saudi Aramco SABIC Ma’aden and Gulf EPC joint integrity specs. Every tool is made pressure-tested and calibrated at ISO 17025-grade places with traceable certification. The design is compact, has a corrosion-resistant coating, plus over-stroke protection making them very reliable in Arabia’s tough desert and coastal places.

The duo series multi-stage tensioners are versatile hydraulic bolt tensioners suitable for high load and tight space applications. They are optimized for use on wind turbines and designed for long-life, low-maintenance applications in various industries, including slewing rings, power generation, structural, and critical bolting.

duo Hydraulic Tensioners feature fast spring piston retract, geared nut run-down, and spring-located sockets, contributing to improved process time during each tensioning operation. This design prioritizes both speed and efficiency in the tensioning process.

duo Hydraulic Tensioners prioritize safety with an optional durable TWIST-GRIP handle integrated over the hydraulic connection. This not only facilitates easy handling and positioning of the tool but also protects the hose and inlet connection from unnecessary loading, providing an additional layer of safety. High cycle life, over-stroke protection, and the latest seal technology ensure low maintenance operation.

duo tensioners offer a range of options and features, including special threads, special load requirements, twin or single port configurations, protective handle, special bridge for tight clearances, swivel connections, cycle counter, gear drive nut run-down, spring piston return, misalignment compensation, and ARMOURMAX anti-corrosion, anti-wear coating.

- Multi-stage hydraulic bolt tensioners are designed for applications requiring sequential tensioning, allowing controlled tightening of bolts in multiple stages.

- Hydraulic tensioners operate by using hydraulic pressure to extend a piston, applying tension to the bolt. Multi-stage tensioners allow for sequential tensioning, improving control and accuracy.

The load loss factor in bolt tensioning refers to the reduction in tension force over time due to various factors, such as material relaxation, joint settling, and external loads. It quantifies the loss of preload in a bolted joint, impacting the joint's overall integrity.

Bolt tensioning is essential for achieving and maintaining the required clamping force in bolted joints. Proper tensioning ensures joint integrity, preventing issues like leakage, gasket damage, and joint failure. It enhances safety, reliability, and the overall performance of the assembly.
