FC10TE Hydraulic Flange Closing Tool
The Equalizer™ FC10TE Flange Closing Tool is a simple light-weight hydraulic tool used to pull together flanges prior to the application of bolts.
The Equalizer™ FC10TE can pull flanges from a distance of 600mm down to 0mm with a force of 20T (200kN) when used as recommended, in pairs.
Any number of FC10TE tools can be used simultaneously to provide greater pulling loads.
