      Sometimes they don't even get the drain plug out before fucking it up.
      My dad has always changed his own oil. One day he got lazy and took his truck to walmart.
      Turns out the mechanic was feeling lazy too, and tried to use an impact to remove the drain plug. Only problem was that he had the impact on righty tighty instead of lefty loosey.
      Not a fun day.

    The way my dad tends to do hardened gears, is they'll do a hobbing job first, then send the gear for heat treating, then put the gear in the gear grinder. Given the size of those pawls, it's likely that the teeth were ground post hardening, entirely.

  • @mephInc
    @mephInc 6 лет назад +21

    That's a cute little guy. :)
    We use 6" ones where I work. Nothing more fun than torquing down a 108" hot blast valve.
    Also note: these are designed to rest against a nut that you are not torquing. That nut braces it so it can chooch on the active nut.
    Those chowder marks are likely because they achieved the torque needed and it was wedged against another nut. A little tap tap taparoo does the trick.
    As far as the "half a flat per...", yes, we use a spline drive impact to snug everything up and then torque them to high hell.

    23:43 the 8 drilled dimples with the threaded hole in the center is actually for a handle so you can hold on to the tool and not have your hand in the line of fire or holding onto the hoses and have to worry about hydraulic injection. The 8 dimples are so you can index the handle how you need it. Same basic design as a Hytorq.

    Inuendo; what preparation H is called in Greece. Speaking of pirates.
    A pirate walks into a bar. Oddly enough, he has a ship's wheel sticking out of the front of his pants. He waddles uncomfortably up to the bar and orders a beer. Everyone is staring at him. The bartender serves him his beer, and inquires "Excuse me sir, I can't help but ask. I notice you have a ship's steering wheel stuck in your pants. Isn't that kind of uncomfortable?" The pirate replies: "Arrrh! It's drivin' me nuts!"

    Enjoyed the vid. Worked up in Grand Prairie on an 800 man shutdown for a midfield gas plant. These hy-torques were a real nut saver. Busting 2 inch nuts on a giant flange that havent been broke for years, two men on one 40 inch ratchet were enough to blow a nut. A lot of areas we couldn’t get our wrench or ratchet into and were forced to use the hy-torque and never looked back. Could follow all around the flange to break, and torque any bolts on site. A fun side note I found that the idea of having that red anodized aluminum plate wasn’t just for looks..when the wrench is on the nut it needs to rest against the bolts under it to keep all the torque on the nut to spin. When you’re getting up to that super high torque you have your finger under the wrench anywhere in the “red zone” when you hit you’re switch and you won’t be getting your fingers back. Won’t be much left of them

    If you've ever been to Edmonton, you'd know most of the city is the industrial sector. That's why I love it! You can get nearly any tool, and get any part made in this wonderful city! There's a hardware store on every corner, and you can get industrial products in small batch as they will still sell just as much, if not more! I love it!!!!

    I work in the natural gas industry on large natural gas compressor down here in the states. We use these all the time. They have a 3/4" and a 1" drive unit also. That drilled and tapped hole one there with all the little dimples around it is for a T-handle that you can put on either side. Also the manufacturer we have is Torc Up and the head you have would be classified as a TX-2 they sell inserts to go from a 2 3/8" nut to smaller sized nuts. We use a TX-4 that's larger it goes up to 2 5/8". Great pieces of equipment for sure!!!

Ah! heavy industry good ol' times.

    "If you don't put them back, I'll stand on the things and squash 'em!"

    We use these in things in wind turbines to bolt the big bolts that bolt the tower sections together. Up to 70mm nuts on those suckers. We also use hydraulic bolt tensioners if you can get your paws on one of those. It is what you use when the fastener is too long like you were saying, it stretches the bolt and then you use a regular torque wrench to torque the nut to like 35nm and then you let the pressure off the bolt so it is torqued to RFT.

  • @spagsketti
    @spagsketti 4 года назад +1

    AVE you are absolutely correct. I used to fill liquid o2, N2 Ar, Co2 and a few other gases. For one that cylinder is 3000 psi (American math) and when liquid oxygen mixes with oil they violently react with each other. Even more so with liquid oxygen (liquid o2 cryo. is 350 psi) I had to fill the medical oxygen vans that had to be over a cement slab because blacktop is oil. (not sure what happened to this first part but a bunch is missing I will fix it later)
    Story time, In Seattle a couple guys took a scrap cryo of o2 and had it filled. Since the vacuum in between the inner tank and outer wall was non existent it all vented out in less than a day. So, they took the 350 psi fart valve off and plugged it. Driving down i5 they got a flat tire and while fixing the flat that oxygen cryo exploded. The vehicle was a Isuzu flatbed style vehicle and it leveled the cab flat with the bed. Seats, dash, steering wheel and column gone. One guy was thrown from one side of 5 lanes over the other side of oncoming 5 lanes and landed on the hill. the other guy was thrown multiple 100's of feet the other way. The cryo (200 lbs of stainless steel) landed 1/2 mile in some lady's living room. Both guys lived, I do not know what kinda life they have though it was a news paper article I had to read for safety when I was hired and it was 20+ years ago.

    You were close on the Aluminium part. The usual steps for anodising:
    - Rinsing (warm soapy bath)
    - Etching (to remove the natural oxide layer in a acid bath)
    - Anodising (growing back the oxide layer, mostly done with DC, again in an acid bath)
    (this oxide layer is porous so the current can keep reaching the alu to form thicker layers)
    - Colouring (filling the pores with a pigment, can be done separately or in the step above)
    - Sealing the oxide layer (done with steam or boiling water, to close the pores)
    It can be done differently but these are the general steps. I can tell you're not a chemist, but whenever you tell something about chemistry you are spot on. I admire that (as a chemist)!

    I live in Edmonton, and am a pipefitter. I've worked in most of the refineries in the area. I worked for a company that specializes in technical flange bolting where we torque and tension. I have spent many many hours using these wrenches. I don't recognize the brand on this one, seems similar to Enerpac, perhaps a older model? Those swivels seems pretty old. But yeah, very useful tool, and we sure do beat them up a lot and they keep on chooching. I once used one to de-torque a 2" stud. (3 1/8" wrench) at CNRL after their fire in 2011 and ended up literally twisting the stud itself in half. I calculated the pump pressure to wrench torque to be at about 20,000 ft/lbs at the breaking point. Crazy stuff! (Shoulda went for the nut splitter)

    Not a bad piece of gear you got, we use these to torque the bolts that secure the manways on the reactors in my plant. The truly bad ass ones I used didn't even apply toque to the nut/bolt. They threaded on to the bolt thread and fit over the nut and used hydraulics to stretch the bolt. Then all you had to do was run the nut down by hand to snug it up to the flanges of the pipe or vessel. When you let off the pressure the bolt stretch is what determined clamping force. Used them on high pressure stream lines in plants.
