Offset gearbox for plate heat exchangers

With this offset gearbox you open and close plate heat exchangers easily and efficiently. A pneumatic Raptor torque wrench (or an electric wrench) drives the long tie rods continuously via the gearbox, without the hammering of an impact wrench. The gearbox fits hex sizes from 55 to 95 mm (2 3/16 to 3 3/4 inch); with hex inserts you can also use it for smaller nuts.
