Mining haul trucks are among the largest machines operating in Eastern Canada’s mining sector. Equipment such as the Komatsu 980 or Caterpillar 797 can carry hundreds of tons per load, making proper maintenance essential to keeping operations running efficiently.
RAD torque wrench systems are designed to handle these high-torque mining applications. Our larger pneumatic torque wrenches—such as the RAD 50DX and 60DX—are commonly used for servicing wheel nuts and other critical fasteners on heavy mining equipment.
In applications like OTR haul truck wheel maintenance, where extremely high torque is required to safely secure wheel nuts, RAD systems allow crews to apply precise, repeatable torque while reducing reliance on impact tools. This improves safety, consistency, and efficiency during tire changes and scheduled maintenance.
RAD East provides additional support for mining maintenance across Eastern and Atlantic Canada through tool rentals and on-site assistance during shutdowns, turnarounds, and planned maintenance windows. This allows crews to scale equipment as needed while staying on schedule.
Mining equipment maintenance goes beyond tire work. RAD torque systems are also used for servicing:
- Haul truck suspension systems and tie rods
- Final drive components and drivetrain assemblies
- Engine barring applications
- Track pads, cutting blades, and mill liners
- Structural fasteners across heavy equipment
Our systems also support torque verification and accuracy requirements, helping ensure consistent and reliable bolting across all applications.
