Typhoon Tensioners
range of bolt tensioners offer a high-load, low profile solution for space-restricted applications demanding high and accurate preloads, such as wind turbines.
The tensioners exert a high load with both the multi-stage, ideal for radial obstruction applications and the single stage, for vertical obstruction applications.
