A bolt tensioner is an annular jack that fits over the fastener to be tightened. Followed by the definition and components mentioned in the previous article on components involved in bolt tensioners, we will provide you an insight into the design of the tool that will also explain how do bolt tensioners operate. We will also be talking about applied and residual load. We highly recommend you to read information about the components from our previous article to understand the operation better.

With very limited articles shedding light on bolt tensioners, we will be elaborating in brief about hydraulic bolt tensioners and the role of its components involved in assembling a tool. This will include us talking about the functionality of the tool as well as the components of the tool to compare between conventional and hydraulic tools.
