Torque Indicator Systems
Hydraulic torque gauges for power tongs, iron roughnecks and rotary tables.

Matherne's power tong system indicates the torque applied to each joint when running pipe or casing, helping to ensure proper make-up and reduce drill collar and tool joint failures. It comprises a 6-inch tong torque indicator with bracket, a standard 5 ft hose and a tension or compression load cell, and an adjustable target pointer lets the driller work to a clear mark. Iron roughneck torque gauges read make-up and break-out torque on tubular connections.
On the rotary table, the Tru-Torque system uses compression load cells on opposite corners of the table to read torque on the drill string in true ft-lb, calibrated to 2% of full scale. The conventional rotary torque system gives a relative reading in points (500 or 1,000) to help avoid twist-offs during coring, milling and reaming.
