Air-Powered Torque Wrenches & Nutrunners
Available49 products
Air-powered torque wrenches (sometimes called nutrunners) connect to a pressurized air supply to drive nuts to a predetermined torque. Air-powered tools are generally lighter than cordless and corded tools, making them a good choice for tasks requiring extended run times. They also have fewer moving parts so they run cooler and require less maintenance. Users set the desired torque and the tool automatically stops tightening when the desired torque is reached to prevent overtightening. These wrenches are commonly used for assembly work, oil and gas pipelines, and other applications where overtightening can damage equipment.
Right-Angle Air-Powered Nutrunners
Right-angle air-powered torque wrenches are the traditional nutrunner style with a long body and a head that is angled 90° from the length of the tool. The angled head eases access to tight spaces and allows the operator to use the tool body to stabilize the tool so it can be used at higher torques than inline tools. Their lever switch is pressed with multiple fingers (rather than with a single finger like a trigger throttle) to reduce hand fatigue when used for extended periods of time.

Pistol-Grip Air-Powered Nutrunners
Pistol-grip air-powered torque wrenches (sometimes called nutrunners) are held in the hand in the same way as a drill. They are commonly used for tightening nuts on vertical surfaces. The square drive on the end of the tool holds sockets of different sizes. A reaction bar on the side of the tool allows two-handed operation for bracing the tool in high-torque applications and preventing counter-rotation that can cause operator strain. The trigger throttle is operated by pulling the switch with the index finger.

Inline Air-Powered Nutrunners
Inline air-powered torque wrenches have a square drive that is parallel with the length of the tool, similar to a manual screwdriver. Also called nutrunners, they are typically used for low-range torque applications. Their lever switch is pressed with multiple fingers (rather than with a single finger like a trigger throttle) to reduce hand fatigue when used for extended periods of time.
