Hydraulic Nut Splitters & Angle Head Nut Cutters
The angled head hydraulic nut splitter is engineered to safely and efficiently remove seized, corroded, or damaged nuts that cannot be loosened by conventional methods. Its compact angled head design provides optimal access to nuts flush against surfaces or embedded in tight flange assemblies—making it ideal for pipeline maintenance, shutdowns, and turnaround operations.
Finding The Right Nut Splitter
Selecting the right nut splitter depends on your application and nut size. Here’s what to consider:
- Flat Surface or Flange Joint: For flat surfaces like railroad bolts or other challenging jobs, an Angle Head Nut Splitter is often the best choice.
- Nut Size: Measure across the flats—point to point, not side to side—to ensure the correct fit.
- Nut Type: Identify whether you’re dealing with Heavy Hex, Round, Lock Nut, or another variation to choose the appropriate splitter.
This ensures efficient cutting and minimizes tool wear.
