WORKS ACCORDING TO PLAN

Have more confidence that your design is installed properly on the jobsite with Hilti ’ s new Adaptive Torque system ! Hilti ’ s next-generation intelligent impact wrench features adaptive torque technology , which allows for project documentation
Anchor Fastening Technical Guide , Edition 22
Hilti SIW 6AT plus SI-AT module for setting of Hilti expansion anchors .
and greater quality assurance of installation . Hilti SIW 6AT Tool and SI-AT module quickly and definitively confirms that the anchor is adequately pretensioned without a calibrated torque wrench .
APPLICATIONS
Hilti KB-TZ2 and KB1 ( 3 / 8 " diameter to 5 / 8 diameter sizes ) expansion anchors used in :
• Specified structural applications
• Safety-relevant applications
• Less critical applications , e . g . securing lightweight ducts , lighting , and wiring in seismic risk areas
• Applications which require documentation and greater quality assurance
Lock and load
Hilti expansion anchors such as KB-TZ2 are secured by applying a specific torque to the nut . These anchor types derive tension resistance through the friction generated by expansion forces against the wall of the drilled hole . The torque generates the necessary expansion forces and pretension in the anchor to achieve its performance .
HIGHLIGHTS
• Automated project documentation and quality assurance
• Tested and approved in accordance with international standards ( ETA and ICC-ES )
• Automatic update of new products , firmware , user-interface , functionality , etc .
• Verify the anchor was adequately pretensioned
HOW IT WORKS
The Hilti SIW 6AT plus SI-AT module is calibrated to install anchors with the appropriate pretension , similar to that provided by installing with a calibrated torque wrench .
