Accuracy of
± 3%:
This means that if the tool is set at 5 in-lbs then the tool can reach
torque between 4.85 in-lbs and 5.15 in-lbs. This torque range falls
within the ±
3% accuracy and would meet our specifications.
Auto Shut Off
Clutch: This clutch will shut the tool off automatically when
the preset torque value has been reached.
Balancers:
This device suspends the tool above the operator and allows the operator
to pull the tool down when required and when the tool is released
it will pull the tool up and away.
Bi-Directional:
This means that the torque tool can be operated in either a left or
right hand direction and still have the clutch click out when torque
value is reached.
Certificate
of Calibration: This certificate, when requested with a tool that
has been preset to a specific torque value, certifies that the tool
will operate within the confines of the set torque value and accuracy.
cfm: Cubic
feet per minute.
Clutch:
This device allows any tool whether electric or pneumatic to drive
a screw down to a precise torque value consistently.
Cushion Clutch:
This clutch will make a chattering or racheting sound which tells
the operator when the preset torque value has been reached.
dBA: Decibel
rating with the range being 0(good) to 130(bad).
Exhaust Hose:
This plastic hose is used to shield any excess oil which might be
ejected through the exhaust port of the air tool from any material
an operator might be working on.
Hard Joint:
The torque that is required to fasten down a machine screw into a
pre-threaded hole.
in-lbs:
Abbreviation for inch pounds of torque.
in-oz: Abbreviation
for inch ounces of torque.
Kg: Abbreviation
for kilogram(s) of weight.
lbs: Abbreviation
for pound(s) of weight.
Line Filter:
This filter, which is placed on the air line feeding into the air
tool, will filter out the excess water in the air line. The line filter
is the "F" in the FRL abbreviation.
Line Lubricator:
This lubricator, which is placed on the air line feeding into the
air tool, will add oil to the air line which helps lubricate the tool.
The lubricator is the "L" in the FRL abbreviation.
mm: Abbreviation
for millimeters.
Non-Rotating
Finder: This finder is placed on the end of a pneumatic screwdriver
so that the finder will cover the head of the screw while being fastened
down. This helps prevent the screwdriver bit from walking off the
head of the screw and marring the finish.
NPT: Abbreviation
for national pipe thread.
Powder Coat:
This particular type of finish means that the material to be painted
is covered with a dry power paint which is then heated to a point
where it melts all over the material covering it evenly and leaving
a durable hard glossy coat.
PSIG: Abbreviation
for pounds per square inch gauge.
Quick Change
Bit Holder: This type of bit holder allows the operator to replace
the screwdriver bit quickly.
Quick Disconnect:
These devices allow the operator to quickly disconnect an air line
from a tool will the air pressure is still on without any repercussions.
Regulator:
This device, which is placed on the air line feeding into the air
tool, regulates the air pressure going into the tool. The regulator
is the "R" in the abbreviations FRL.
RPM: Abbreviation
for revolutions per minute.
Snap-in Bit
Holder: This type of bit holder is designed to keep the bit firmly
secure and is not easily removed except with hand tools.
Soft Joint:
The torque that is required to fasten down a self tapping screw or
a screw with washers and a nut.
Torque:
A turning or twisting force required to fasten down a screw.
Torque Range:
The high and low settings of a clutch or the range of setting with
the ± accuracy
included.
Vacuum Transducer
Assembly: This devices creates a vacuum chamber when air is applied
at one end of the device while exiting at the other end. There are
no mechanical or electrical devices used to create the vacuum, just
the laws of physics. |
