Hi-Force has recently announced the launch of a new generation of hydraulic torque wrenches.

This latest range of hydraulic tools is fully compatible for use with the innovative Hi-Force BoltRight software suite, enabling users to simplify a previously complex requirement, for correctly and accurately tightening bolts in a wide variety of bolted joint connections.
Hi-Force hydraulic torque wrenches are available in both square drive (TWS-N series) and female hexagon cassette (TWH-N series) options, designed to handle the toughest bolting jobs accurately and quickly with a consistent torque repeatability of +/- per cent.  All tools are supplied in a custom made, robust carrying and storage case.
Some of the many advantages of this latest generation of tools from Hi-Force include:  lightweight aluminium construction, 360 degree uni-swivel quick connect couplings, minimal number of moving parts for increased reliability and straight forward servicing, and a choice of ten different models offering output torque capacities from 1,700Nm to over 48,000Nm.
The combination of compact design and lightweight, aluminium construction offers the maximum torque output to weight ratio in the industry, as well as allowing the tools to be operated comfortably and safely, by the user, in the most confined and restricted space applications.   
TWS-N square drive versions are available in standard square drive sizes from 3/4” to 2.1/2”, whilst the TWH-N female hexagon cassette ratchet head tools are available in standard imperial AF (across flats) sizes from 1.1/16” to 6.7/8” and 24mm to 145mm AF metric sizes. Special non-standard sizes are also available on a “made to order” basis. All models operate at 700 Bar maximum working pressure with a choice of air or electric driven pump units available.
In support of this new generation of tools Hi-Force also offers its’ innovative new Bolting Software suite, aptly named BoltRight.
Designed specifically for use by Engineers with requirements for consistent, accurate bolt tightening solutions, BoltRight incorporates extensive technical calculations related to bolt stress, temperature, material type, gasket compression and choice of lubricant to ensure accurate torque/tension calculations are produced every time.
BoltRight is Windows compatible and readily available free of charge to approved
Hi-Force users, via download from a restricted access area of the Hi-Force website.
As well as accurately calculating the correct torque/tension figures from the key joint information provided by the user, BoltRight is also able to produce printed operational procedures and detailed analysis of the bolted joint calculation information.
This unique feature helps users to operate the tools competently and safely with fully traceable documentation. Additionally this unique software package guides the user towards selecting the most suitable Hi-Force tooling to successfully carry out the bolting job. 
Hi-Force offers free comprehensive training in the use and application of its new range of hydraulic torque wrenches along with the BoltRight software program, to all existing users of its products.  
Potential new users can also receive this training on completion of their first purchase of Hi-Force bolting tools.
Commercially and technically the new Hi-Force hydraulic torque wrenches and the BoltRight software offer the reliability and consistency that is essential for customers, with critical bolted joint requirements throughout a wide spectrum of industries.
