What is the working pressure of the Hydraulic Force Tool (HFT)?

The hydraulic force tool (HFT) is designed to generate significant force for applications such as rescue operations and forcible entry. The working pressure is critical as it dictates the effectiveness and safety of the tool during operations.

For this specific tool, the designated working pressure of 8000 psi indicates a balance between the tool's capability to exert sufficient force while maintaining manageable operational safety. A higher working pressure, such as 10000 psi or 12000 psi, could lead to increased risk of failure or require more extensive training and awareness of proper usage protocols. Keeping the working pressure at 8000 psi ensures that users can operate the tool effectively without compromising safety or requiring excessive precautionary measures that come with higher pressures.

Moreover, manufacturers usually state these figures to ensure that users understand the limits and capabilities of the tool, making 8000 psi an optimal choice for achieving the necessary hydraulic power while minimizing the risks involved in high-pressure operation.
