The Spring Torque Tester

The Secure Pak Spring Torque Tester is designed to control cap tightness – an essential factor – in bottling operations:

• When caps are not applied tightly enough, leakage or evaporation of product may occur.
• When caps are applied too tightly, molded closures may be susceptible to breakage, or the caps may be difficult to remove.

Secure Pak Spring Torque Testers are available in two different models:

• The MR model has an indicator on the removal side only.
• The MRA model has indicators on both the removal and application sides.

Both the MR and MRA models are available in the following standard ranges:

• 0-25 inch lbs., which reads in 1 inch lb. increments
• 0-50 inch lbs., which reads in 2 inch lb. increments
• 0-100 inch lbs., which reads in 5 inch lb. increments

Special order ranges are available:

• 0-2 inch lbs., which reads in 0.1 inch lb. increments
• 0-5 inch lbs., which reads in 0.2 inch lb. increments
• 0-10 inch lbs., which reads in 0.5 inch lb. increments

The Secure Pak Spring Torque Testers have an accuracy of ±4% of full scale or reading.

Spring Torque Testers are shipped approximately one to two weeks after receipt of firm order. We ship standard UPS unless otherwise specified by customer. The Spring Torque Tester is shipped double-wrapped and double-boxed for maximum protection.

• Net weight of tester: 12 lbs.
• Shipping information: 15 lbs., 19 ½" x 11 ½" x 5 ¾"

For an upcharge, we can furnish these testers with a Teflon finish on all exposed metal parts. This provides a hard, wear-resistant, anti-stick, permanently lubricated surface that will resist chipping, cracking, flaking, and peeling. This Teflon coating will protect the tester from damage by most chemicals, ingredients, and solvents.

Digital Torque Tester

The Secure Pak Digital Torque Tester makes control of closure tightness easier and more reliable than ever before. The Digital Torque Tester is one step above our Spring Torque Tester, which has been setting the industry standard for years.

The Digital Torque Tester:

• Covers the entire testing range of cap sizes operating from 0-100 inch lbs. for both removal and application.
• Reads in 0.1-inch lb. increments.
• Has an accuracy of ±2% of full scale or reading.
• Holds the peak reading for approximately 30 seconds, so that readings can be recorded manually.
• Operates on either 110 V using a step-down transformer with 9 V output or a 9 V alkaline battery for use in remote or laboratory locations.

We ship standard UPS unless otherwise specified by customer. The Digital Torque Tester is shipped double-wrapped and double-boxed for maximum protection.

Computer Interface Torque Tester

The Secure Pak Computer Interface Torque Tester improves upon the industry standard we've set for the reliable control of closure tightness by interfacing our Digital Torque Tester with your RS232 compatible computer or printer. Software is available for use with DOS or Windows.

The Computer Interface Torque Tester:

• Covers the entire testing range of cap sizes operating from 0-100 inch lbs. for both removal and application.
• Reads in 0.1-inch lb. increments, and the reading is visible on the tester as well as on the computer screen or printout.
• Has an accuracy of ±2% of full scale or reading.
• Holds the peak reading for approximately 30 seconds, so that readings can be recorded manually.
• Operates on 110 V using a step-down transformer with 15 V output.
• Is capable of being linked to your RS232 computer or printer by a serial cable.

We ship standard UPS unless otherwise specified by customer. The Computer Interface Torque Tester is shipped double-wrapped and double-boxed for maximum protection.
