1200 Ton Hepburn Bale Press
Problem: In order to properly torque the standard nuts that were formerly used on this application, heating rods were used. This method of bolting
is inaccurate, time consuming and unsafe.
Due to improper bolt loading, oil seeped up the stud holes and between sealing surfaces (the latter causing damage to the mating surfaces).
Average installation time: 8 hours
Solution: Supernut™ tensioners eliminated the need for dangerous methods of installation, creating a desired amount of torque using only simple hand tools!
Because of even tension around the flange and proper bolt load provided by the Supernuts™, oil waste was eliminated.

Installation time: 2 hours
Qty: 24- 2 1/2”- 8 tpi studs
*rqd’ torque: 49,000 psi/7750 ft•lbs
