RAD Torque Systems B-RAD Series

The RAD Torque Systems B-RAD Series of battery-powered torque
wrenches, which currently includes B-RAD S, B-RAD Select, Digital
B-RAD and B-RAD Select Offset tools, now includes the new B-RAD X
and B-RAD EGX-R, a tool customized specifically for the rail
industry. The B-RAD EGX-R, which is designed for track bolts,
features an extension that eliminates the need for operators to
bend or squat down to secure them—a very ergonomic adaptation for
track workers. Product Manager Brian Warmerdam, the company’s go-to
product expert with 11 years of experience and a former product
training specialist, describes these new torque tools to Railway
Age Editor-in-Chief William C. Vantuono. RAD Torque Systems,
sponsor of this podcast, is the leading manufacturer of pneumatic,
battery-powered and electronic pistol grip torque wrenches. With
more than 25 years of gearbox engineering, a RAD Torque wrench is
stronger, lighter and faster than others on the market. The company
was founded by Dan Provost more than 25 years ago and has quickly
grown to be known as the tool of choice for industrial bolting
applications around the world. In addition to the B-RAD Series, the
company offers several other torque wrench series, including the
RAD Pneumatic and E-RAD BLU and V-RAD electronic tools; as well as
calibration equipment.
