Mining Torque Wrench Solutions

Mining is a demanding industry where equipment reliability and worker safety are critical. The massive haul trucks and heavy equipment used in mining operations require reliable mining torque wrench solutions to keep operations running smoothly and minimize costly downtime.

At RAD Torque, we design and manufacture mining bolting systems used by some of the world’s largest mining operations – including companies such as Suncor and Syncrude. Our tools help crews maintain heavy equipment safely and efficiently in some of the toughest working environments on earth.

Providing Efficient Maintenance

The mining industry’s haul trucks are among the largest machines operating anywhere in the world. Trucks such as the Komatsu 980 or the Caterpillar 797 can carry nearly 400 tons in a single haul. When one of these trucks requires maintenance, crews rely on reliable mining torque tools to safely service critical components and get equipment running again as quickly as possible.

RAD mining torque wrench systems help keep these operations running. Our larger pneumatic torque wrenches – such as the 50DX and 60DX – deliver the high torque required to service wheel nuts and other critical components on massive haul trucks. That’s why companies like Finning and Kal Tire rely on RAD mining bolting systems to maintain trucks and keep mining operations moving across Canada.

But servicing mining equipment involves more than changing tires. These machines require specialized torque wrench solutions for heavy equipment to maintain suspension systems, drivetrain components, and structural fasteners. RAD provides strut kits and additional bolting solutions, including:

  • Tools for engine barring
  • Tie rod bolts for haul truck suspensions
  • Wrenches for track pads, final drive segments, cutting blades, mill liners, and wheel nuts
  • Transducer verification

OUR TOOLS KEEP MECHANICS WORKING AT SOME OF THE LARGEST MINES IN THE WORLD. THEY DELIVER THE KIND OF RELIABLE PERFORMANCE THAT BOOSTS PRODUCTIVITY AND MINIMIZES DOWNTIME.

Lifting the Weight off Workers' Shoulders

Mining crews perform physically demanding work every day. Maintaining large haul trucks and heavy equipment requires tools that deliver high torque while reducing strain on workers.

That’s where RAD mining torque tools come in. Our tools are designed to deliver high torque while keeping operators in safer, more ergonomic working positions.

In the past, mining maintenance relied heavily on large impact wrenches. The hammering and vibration from these tools can be extremely damaging to operators, often leading to wrist injuries and Hand-Arm Vibration Syndrome (HAVS), which can cause permanent nerve damage.

Today, mining torque wrench systems provide a safer alternative. RAD torque wrenches allow operators to set precise torque values with an accuracy of +/-5%, eliminating the impact forces associated with traditional tools and helping protect workers from vibration-related injuries.

SAFER WORKERS ARE STRONGER WORKERS, ESPECIALLY IN A SAFETY-CONSCIOUS INDUSTRY LIKE MINING. RAD TORQUE IS PROUD TO BE PART OF THAT DRIVE FOR SAFETY AND ERGONOMICS.

Lifting the Weight off Workers' Shoulders

Our mining bolting systems are designed specifically for the demands of heavy-duty mining equipment. We offer several torque wrench solutions for heavy equipment used by mechanics working at some of the largest mines in the world:

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY

“I never realized how short we were coming up on proper torque specs until I started using RAD Tools. The power in the 30DX is unbelievable for its size. No more loose bolts.”

-Mitch Blaschke, Mechanic on Discovery Channel’s Gold Rush
