Ratchet spanner for connectors (USAG 260): Speed and precision without having to move the spanner
The perfect solution for professionals: the USAG 260 ratchet spanner for connectors
The ratchet spanner for connectors is an indispensable tool in any workshop, particularly if you regularly work on hydraulic, pneumatic and pipe connections. This innovative spanner combines the speed of a ratchet with the safety of a fork-type spanner, enabling nuts to be tightened in a flash without removing the spanner.
It is designed for rapid tightening without removing the spanner from the nut, which significantly reduces working time and minimises fatigue.
Key product advantages
- Exceptional speed: The ratchet mechanism enables rapid rotation and tightening of the nut with a simple swing of the spanner, without having to reposition it after each turn.
- Optimal grip: The innovative open design allows you to fit the spanner directly onto a pipe or connector, and then tighten the nut with a full grip.
- High durability: The spanner is made from premium materials, ensuring long-lasting and reliable use under heavy loads.
- Wide range of applications: Ideal for the installation and maintenance of hydraulic lines, brake hoses and pneumatic systems.
How to use
Using the ratchet spanner for connectors is intuitive, yet essential for working quickly:
- Select the correct size: Choose a spanner that fits the nut exactly (e.g. 19 mm, as shown in the picture).
- Fitting the spanner: Place the spanner around the pipe or hose and push it onto the connector nut from the side
As the head is open, you do not need to follow the end of the pipe.
- Set the direction: Check that the ratchet mechanism is set to the correct direction (tightening or loosening).
- Quick tightening: Quickly tighten the nut by gently rocking the spanner back and forth
Thanks to the ratchet mechanism, you do not need to remove the spanner from the nut after every turn.
- Final tightening: Once the nut reaches the tightening point, use the full length of the spanner to achieve the required torque.
