What happens if a customer overspeeds our tools by putting too much oil through them?
In general all the tools operate noticeably faster and possible damage can occur. Our reciprocating tools will not be damaged since they’ll only accept a limited flow until pressure rises above 2000 psi. The excess flow will then be diverted over system relief back to tank. The rotary tools will spin faster and impact wrenches will suffer extremely rapid failure of the impact mechanism. Wrenches should not be oversped. Many people think that a tool designed for operation at 8 gpm will work better at 10 or 12 gpm. Not true. Operate our tools at the suggested gpm’s, they’ll work right.
