SaferUnion Torque Wrench - Where the pressure matter

LA New Product Development Team · 2:07 · Published November 30, 2017

About this video

The SaferUnion Torque Wrench (wrench) is specifically designed to allow the SaferUnion Nut to apply a predefined torque value to a pipe connection. This prevents a connection from being under-torqued, which would allow the union to come loose and leak. It also prevents a connection from being over-torqued, which would cause unnecessary stress and fatigue on the union components, and prematurely wear them out, or damage the threads on the equipment.

Why we publish these videos

Almost everything on this channel was produced alongside a real client programme rather than as marketing filler. Some clips are product animations built to explain a mechanism to a licensee or a retail buyer, some document how a prototype was machined, printed or assembled, and some are episodes of our podcast covering developments in product design and manufacturing.

We publish them because most of the questions inventors ask are easier to answer by showing than by describing. Seeing how a part comes off a printer, how an overmoulded grip is cast, or how a concept is judged in a design review tends to settle expectations about cost and schedule far faster than a written explanation.

LA New Product Development Team is a US design, engineering and prototyping group based in Ruston, Louisiana. We take hardware products from an initial idea through research, industrial design, mechanical and electronic engineering, prototyping and a manufacturing hand-off, and every video here comes out of that work.
