Ultrasonic Bolting Instruments
Ultrasonic instruments that accurately measure stress, elongation and load in threaded fasteners for controlled, verified bolting.
Dakota also manufactures a line of ultrasonic bolting equipment that very accurately measures the stress, elongation and load in threaded fasteners. By using ultrasound to gauge how much a bolt stretches under tension, these instruments give a direct, verifiable measure of clamping load, which is far more precise than torque alone for critical joints.
This makes them valuable wherever bolted connections must be tensioned to known, repeatable loads for safety and reliability.
- Direct measurement of bolt stress, elongation and load
