GROWING DEMAND FOR ACCURATE TIGHTENING
There is a growing demand, much of it motivated by performance and health and safety, for accurate tightening of nuts and bolts throughout industry.
This relates to turbine manufacturing and subsequent maintenance applications. To satisfy this demand requires reliable and capable torque tools, both hand tools and power tools. Norbar Torque Tools Ltd is the
world’s leading torque specialist, a third generation family business which designs and manufactures torque tools for tightening nuts and bolts accurately.
HISTORY
Incorporated in 1943, the ‘North Bar Tool Company’ became the first company in Britain to commercially manufacture torque wrenches. The initial demand was driven by the need for the gasket-less cylinder head of the Rolls Royce Merlin engine to be accurately tightened.
GLOBAL REACH
Today, the company’s products and services are used across the globe in such diverse industries as Wind Energy, Manufacturing, Sub-Sea, Aerospace, Energy, Mining and Oil & Gas. Norbar has distributors in over 75 countries as well as accredited calibration laboratories across four continents.
EXCEEDING INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS
All torque wrenches are designed and manufactured to exceed international standards for accuracy. The range of products covers torque values from 0.3N·m to 2000N·m. The Norbar HandTorque range is the most comprehensive range of multipliers available. Standard products are available up to 47,500 N·m (35,000 lbf·ft) and ‘specials’ to 300,000 N·m (220,000 lbf·ft). A multiplication accuracy of ±4%, throughout the operating range, eliminates the uncertainty of high torque tightening.
