TENSIONAMENTO
MEGATORC offers specialized tensioning services that apply a uniform, controlled tensile force to bolts to create precise compression in the joint, using hydraulic tools to ensure accurate and secure tightening, preventing loosening, leaks, and failures in industrial equipment, such as flanges and pressure vessels.
What is the Service?
- Method: It lengthens the bolt to create a compressive load on the joint, unlike torque which uses friction.
- Ferramentas: It uses hydraulic tensioners that connect and apply the same load to multiple bolts simultaneously.
Benefits:
- Precision: Aplicação exata da força de pré-carga.
- Security: It reduces the risk of structural failures and ensures joint integrity.
- Uniformidade: Distribute the load evenly between the screws.
- Reliability: It eliminates pressure loss due to friction, and is more precise than torque in some cases.
Applications:
- Assembly and maintenance of bolted joints in pressure vessels, heat exchangers, flanges, turbines, and large equipment.
