FSM8, 8 Ton, Mechanical Industrial Spreader, 3.16 in Maximum Spread
FSM8, 8 Ton, Mechanical Industrial Spreader, 3.16 in Maximum Spread
The FSM8 Manual Flange Spreader is a simple, yet powerful spreading wedge that uses a mechanical cylinder and ratchet to exert forces up to 8 tons (72 kN). This flange spreader fits into clearance gap of just 0.24" (6 mm) and can extend up to 3.16 inches (80 mm).
Simplify flange joint spreading an 8 ton (72 kN) mechanical flange spreader. The FSM8 is lighter than comparable tools. A mechanical tool offers simple operation and a pump and hose free solution.

The FSM8 Manual Flange Spreader is mechanically operated using a ratchet mechanism. With no need a hydraulic pump and trailing hoses, it is a great choice for working in difficult spaces at remote locations.
The FSM8 flange tool fits into very small clearance gaps of 0.24 inch (6 mm). It uses a friction-free, smooth, parallel wedge movement to prevent flange damage and spreading arm failure.
- Integrated wedge concept: friction-free, smooth, parallel wedge movement eliminates flange damage and spreading arm failure
- Unique interlocking wedge design: no first step bending and risk of slipping out of joint
- Requires very small access gap of only 0.24 inch (6 mm)
- Stepped spreader arm design: each step can spread under full load
- Few moving parts means durability and low maintenance
- Safety block SB1 and single-acting cylinder included
