Pneumatic Tension Rod (PD-200-NT50) — 200 ft‑lb torque, 3,000 rpm, Vertex

Pneumatic Tension Rod (PD-200-NT50) is an air‑operated tensioning unit for industrial assembly and fastening tasks, designed to deliver consistent torque and rapid cycle rates for production environments

• 200 ft‑lb torque for heavy-duty fastening
• High-speed operation: 3,000 rpm
• Nominal air supply 90 psi / 6.3 kg/cm²
• Supply options AC 110/220 V and DC 24 V

Consistent torque for precise assembly

The unit delivers 200 ft‑lb torque, enabling secure fastening and reliable clamping force where reproducibility matters. Torque is the turning force applied at the tool output; specifying a constant torque reduces rework and improves joint integrity. The design is focused on repeatability: the mechanical output is stabilised by the air drive and gearing, which means fewer torque variations in serial processes. The combination of robust torque and controlled actuation reduces assembly errors and supports quality assurance protocols in manufacturing lines.

Fast cycle rates with industrial air and electrical options

High throughput is supported by a maximum speed of 3,000 rpm, which allows rapid tightening cycles and short takt times in automated or semi-automated lines. The unit operates from a nominal 90 psi / 6.3 kg/cm² compressed‑air supply and accepts multiple electrical feeds (AC 110V, 220V or DC 24V) for control electronics or integrated sensors. These characteristics make the product suitable for integration with PLC systems and pneumatic manifolds. A compact overall mass of 11 kg keeps handling and fixturing requirements moderate while preserving rigidity during operation.

Designed for industrial workflow and straightforward integration

Built by Vertex and identified as PD-200-NT50, this tension rod is intended for continuous industrial use where durability and serviceability are required. The drive is engineered to be mounted within assembly fixtures or on tool balancers; electrical and pneumatic interfaces are standardised to ease commissioning. Maintenance is simplified by accessible connection points and replaceable wear components, which supports predictable uptime and planned servicing. Compatibility with common factory supplies and control systems reduces installation complexity and streamlines adoption into existing production cells.
