The Enerpac Square Drive Aluminium Hydraulic Torque Wrench, 1913 Nm Torque, 3/4 in. Square Drive (SKU-DSX1500) is a professional-grade bolting solution engineered to provide precise, safe, and reliable torque in demanding environments. Designed for users who require both performance and portability, this lightweight aluminium tool combines strength, accuracy, and innovative safety features that set a new benchmark in torque wrench design.

Weighing just 2.2 kg, the DSX1500 is significantly lighter than traditional steel torque wrenches, making it an ideal choice for operators who work at height or in applications where tool handling and manoeuvrability are critical. Despite its compact and portable design, it delivers a maximum torque output of 1913 Nm, with a minimum torque of 191 Nm, and operates at pressures up to 690 bar.

Safety and Compliance

Safety is at the core of the DSX design. Each wrench is CE and ATEX certified, ensuring it can be used confidently in explosive atmospheres and other high-risk industrial environments. A calibration certificate is supplied as standard, providing reassurance of accuracy and compliance from the outset.

The DSX1500 incorporates patented safety technologies that directly address the risks of dropped tools and operator injury. A built-in working-at-height tether point and a retained reaction arm both provide critical safeguards, preventing accidental tool detachment during use. These features reduce the likelihood of near-misses and injuries, while enhancing operator confidence in challenging work settings.

A fully enclosed drive and ergonomic safety handle further reinforce operator safety, protecting users from pinch points and enabling more controlled handling of the tool.

Design and Performance

The DSX1500 is built with a high-strength aluminium body, providing a slimline profile without compromising durability. The result is a torque wrench that is easier to transport, handle, and operate in confined or elevated locations.

Efficiency is achieved through a fine-tooth ratchet mechanism that prevents tool “lock-on” and a 35° operating stroke with a rapid return action. This ensures fast, smooth operation while minimising downtime. In addition, the DSX1500 is engineered with fewer moving parts, making it a high-cycle, low-maintenance tool that is simpler to operate and repair compared to more complex designs.

Ease of Use

The DSX1500 is engineered for practical, user-friendly operation. A robust handle, which can be mounted on either side of the tool, offers greater manoeuvrability and allows the user to maintain control in restricted or awkward positions.

The tool is fitted with a push-button square drive and reaction arm mechanism, enabling rapid adjustments and secure attachment. The work-at-height connection point is easy to access, ensuring quick, safe set-up even in challenging locations.

Accuracy and Reliability

Accuracy is a fundamental strength of the DSX1500. It delivers a constant torque output with ±3% accuracy across the full stroke, making it a dependable choice for applications where precision is non-negotiable. Operators can rely on consistent results, whether tightening or loosening, across a wide torque range.

Value for Mid-Range Users

With its combination of safety, portability, and competitive pricing, the DSX1500 represents excellent value for operators who need a torque wrench that performs to high standards without entering the top-tier price bracket. It is particularly suited for mid-weight users and those balancing safety, performance, and cost considerations.

The Enerpac DSX1500 Aluminium Square Drive Hydraulic Torque Wrench is more than just a lightweight alternative — it is a carefully engineered tool that improves safety, efficiency, and precision across bolting applications. With ATEX certification, patented safety features, and a proven design built for demanding environments, it is an essential choice for operators working at height, in hazardous locations, or wherever reliability and safety are paramount.
