Wonder where this would be used that it would be preferred over a Hytorc unit.

The Hytorc Avanti can/does 138,000+ ft-lbs. https://hytorc.com/avanti

And I think* the Hytorc stuff is cheaper, even with the hydraulic pump and all that.

Would be less useful than a breaker bar to home shop. It requires about 30x the flow a "large" home compressor is capable of. Would like to see a torque vs cfm chart.

Made me think....

With that type of CFM usage, I presume this would be used over a Hytorc type unit if you were driving long fasteners.

Most Hytorc stuff is spin the nut on by hand, and then simply torque....but if you had some type of fastener that was 8 feet long, the posted tool would have to run that down faster I would think.

Yeah the advantage there is clearly speed. I have seen the smaller 2 man version before at a power plant. I believe they used it to open and close large valves. Seems to me like old school technology. Something the an in place motorized Valve or something would replace.

I could have used one of those when I rebuilt the deck on a 30 yo brush hog. That blade nut was a personal worst for me[emoji1785]

Done that one. Old Bushhog 109. 6ft cheater pipe with two of us leaning on it finally broke it loose.


We ended up dumping a couple lbs of welding rod on it while hitting with a rosebud. Thats what it took yo cherry that beast! It just needed new seals after. What a PITA
