Torque-Rite® allows you to control
compression and expansion while maintaining constant inch/pounds
force insuring a Perfect Surface I.D. when used with a Perfect
Surface Gasket.Torque-Rite® eliminates the problems associated
with over - or under-tightening a gasket which can lead to an
unsanitary system.

Compression
control is easy!
When tightened, the Torque-Rite®’s self-limiting
internal mechanism will make an audible “click”
signaling the user they have reached proper inch/pounds force.
If further tightening is attempted, there will be more “clicks”
but no additional application of force on the gasket (if emergency
conditions arise, the Torque-Rite® has a built-in manual
override feature).
Problems with over-tightening
or under-tightening a gasket:
Over-tightening can tear or damage a gasket and can
also cause a damming effect inside the pipeline.
A torn or extruded gasket can hold soil and bacteria. Under-tightening
leaves an undesirable concave area at the gasket allowing
soil and bacteria to become entrapped. Both conditions should
be avoided in a sanitary system.
