Premium Torque Multipliers for High-Torque Applications

Professional torque multipliers are essential tools used in automotive and industrial workshops when high torque force is required to tighten or loosen large fasteners. These tools increase the applied torque, allowing technicians to handle heavy-duty bolts safely and efficiently. UNIPAC supplies reliable torque multiplier tools designed for mechanics, service centres, and industrial maintenance environments where precision and strength are critical.

What Are Torque Multipliers?

Torque multipliers are mechanical tools that increase the torque applied by a wrench or power tool. By using internal gear systems, these tools multiply the input force so technicians can tighten or loosen large bolts with less physical effort.

Torque multipliers are commonly used in heavy vehicle servicing, industrial machinery maintenance, and construction equipment repairs, where standard torque tools may not provide enough force. Many workshops use them together with torque wrenches to ensure fasteners are tightened to accurate torque specifications.

Types of Torque Multipliers Used in Workshops

Different torque multiplier tools are designed for various workshop and industrial applications.

Hydraulic torque multiplier
A hydraulic torque multiplier uses hydraulic pressure to generate extremely high torque output. These tools are commonly used for industrial machinery maintenance and heavy equipment servicing.

Torque multiplier 1/2 drive
A torque multiplier 1/2 drive tool allows technicians to apply greater torque through standard socket systems, making it suitable for automotive repairs and mechanical servicing.

Heavy-duty torque multiplier tools
Many workshops rely on high-strength torque multiplier total tools designed for heavy mechanical applications such as truck servicing and industrial equipment maintenance.

Torque multiplier systems are often paired with tools available through tubular and socket wrenches to ensure proper fastener engagement during high-torque tasks.

Benefits of Using Torque Multipliers

Using professional torque multiplier tools offers several advantages for workshops.

• Allows technicians to apply very high torque safely
• Reduces physical effort when loosening large fasteners
• Improves precision during heavy mechanical repairs
• Suitable for industrial and commercial vehicle servicing
• Enhances efficiency in high-torque applications

Many technicians also combine torque multipliers with a socket set to work with different bolt sizes during mechanical repairs.

Choosing the Right Torque Multiplier

Selecting the right torque multiplier depends on the torque output required and the type of equipment being serviced.

Automotive workshops servicing standard vehicles may use compact multiplier tools compatible with common socket systems. Heavy vehicle workshops and industrial maintenance facilities often require larger torque multipliers capable of handling extremely high torque loads.

Using the correct torque tool ensures technicians can complete fastening tasks safely while maintaining consistent torque control.

Frequently Asked Questions

How much weight can a heavy duty jack stand hold?

Capacity varies by model and is stated on each product page. Check the rating for the specific stand you are using, and always work in a matched pair.

Do I need 3 tonne or 6 tonne jack stands?

Work from the weight that will sit on the pair of stands rather than the vehicle’s total weight, then allow a margin above that figure.

Should jack stands always be used in pairs?

Yes. A matched pair set to the same height spreads the load evenly and keeps the vehicle level while you work.

Can a vehicle be left on jack stands overnight?

Stands are made to hold a static load, so a longer job is fine on level, solid ground. Check the vehicle is still sitting square each time you return to it.

What working height do I need for a truck or 4WD?

Measure from the ground to your support point with the wheels off. The tallest 3010H and 3010V models reach 1077 mm and 1090 mm respectively.
