Jam Nut (JN) Torque Wrench – Field-Ready Solution for Obstructed Nut Access

This video demonstrates the functionality of the Jam Nut (JN) Torque Wrench, a specialized tool engineered to loosen jam nuts obstructed by central shafts, rods, or piping—common challenges in compressor assemblies and flange setups. The tool features a split-head design that opens via a removable pin, allowing technicians to position the wrench around obstructed nuts with ease. Once the head is closed and secured, torque application proceeds as normal, delivering safe, controlled force without the need for workaround methods or manual strain. For complex or non-standard configurations, the JN Tool also supports customized adapters, making it versatile enough to handle virtually any obstruction scenario. Built for precision, safety, and repeatability, this tool is ideal for field crews working in tight spaces or high-risk environments. Watch the video to see how the JN Tool simplifies jam nut removal and enhances operational efficiency across pipeline and industrial maintenance applications.
