Bolted joints are critical components in amusement rides, steel structures, and other engineered systems—where failure can lead to serious safety risks, structural damage, or even accidents. One of the most common causes? Improper torque application or uneven bolt tension.

Hilsoncreek provides specialized torque inspection services for such high-stakes environments, using calibrated hydraulic and manual tools. Our inspections are carried out by trained technicians in accordance with ISO 17020 regulations, ensuring compliance, safety, and structural integrity in every project.

Key benefits:

  • Ensures structural integrity

  • Prevents leaks and pressure loss

  • Meets commissioning and maintenance specs

  • Provides traceable torque records for QA/QC

Best practices we follow:

  • Cross-pattern tightening

  • Lubrication consistency

  • Bolt stretch measurements (on request)

Conclusion:
Don’t leave bolt integrity to chance. With proper torqueing, you avoid rework, delays, and safety violations.
