THE NEXT LEVEL OF SMART

New, innovative ways to offer unprecedented security and bolting convenience


Every hour of every day, new developments are contributing to a smarter world around us. As the global market leader of bolting solutions, Nord-Lock Group is dedicated to integrating smart technologies into our already-groundbreaking products. The first of these Industry 4.0 innovations has arrived: the new Superbolt Load-Sensing Tensioner (LST) with built-in preload monitoring system.

Now with the LST, you can easily monitor your preload anytime, anywhere… without the need for cumbersome aftermarket equipment. This advanced product connects seamlessly, offering precise confirmation that your application is tightened correctly. No more re-checking or second-guessing. Now that’s smart.

And we took it to the next level by ensuring smart functionality throughout the life of the product, from installation through application and beyond. The innovative LST has been developed, tested and proven to address both needs for a live preload reading during the installation phase, and for remote preload monitoring during service.

Soon, the Superbolt Load-Sensing Tensioner will be joined by other Industry 4.0 solutions from Nord-Lock Group – including the upcoming Boltight Intelligent Pump. Scheduled for an autumn 2019 release, the Boltight Intelligent Pump is wirelessly operated and suitable for multiple tensioning applications up to 1500bar.
