Man that is wild, what is it for? And let's see the impact wrench and the bolt for that matter.

 

[strnjss]

wow. Are those things for like Navy battleships or something? What do you use that for?

 

[Quik208]

Thats a big boy!!

Lift cylinders on a CAT loader. The bolts get tightened down with a hydraulic torque wrench.

how much did it cost?

 

[Thedroid]

Not sure on cost, I'm in the electrical and insrumentation dept. I was walking through the heavy equipment shop, and noticed this bad sitting next to a giant nylok nut. This is what the torqu wrench looks like. Not sure of torque spec maybe a few thousand lb/ft.

 

[redLSJ]

I found one for $508 from an industrial supply. Impressive tool.

Those type sockets are for resolving problems with antique pocket watches, I believe.
