TONE Electric Nutrunner (GST Series)
Ten wired electric torque tools spanning 150–10,000 N·m, with integrated torque controllers, automatic shut-off, and ±5% repeat accuracy.
More Information
The TONE GST Nutrunner Series is a comprehensive range of wired nutrunners with integrated torque controllers built directly into the tool body — no external box, no trailing leads. Ten torque tiers cover 150 N·m through to 10,000 N·m across standard square drive, double-switch, high-torque, and spline socket configurations. Automatic shut-off, ±5% repeat accuracy, double-insulated construction, and Digitorqon compatibility apply across most models. Purpose-built for structural steel, civil infrastructure, and heavy industrial bolting. Available in 100V and 200V single-phase, supplied with reaction bars and a metal case as standard.
How the Integrated Controller Works
The defining feature of this range is its integrated torque controller. Unlike nutrunners that require a separate external controller box connected by cable, these tools house the control mechanism inside the tool body — keeping the tool compact, the worksite cleaner, and the setup straightforward. Connect to power, preset the torque dial, and the tool stops automatically when it hits the mark, every time.
Ten torque tiers span 150 N·m through to 10,000 N·m, covering structural steel bolting from M16 high-tension bolts at the entry end through to the heaviest bridge, rail, and plant infrastructure applications at the top. Most models also accept optional lever sockets, converting the tool to GSR-type operation when the application demands it.
A double-switch variant (GST81WT/82WT) is available at the 350–800 N·m tier for applications where two-hand operation is required — both switches must be engaged simultaneously to run the tool, preventing finger crush injuries at the reaction bar.
Key Features
- Integrated torque controller — no external control box; clean tool body, safer worksite
- Automatic shut-off — stops precisely at preset torque value, consistent results regardless of operator
- Bidirectional operation — full torque control for both tightening and loosening across all models
- ±5% repeat tightening accuracy — under consistent conditions across the full range
- Double-insulated construction — operator safety prioritised across all models
- Digitorqon compatible — optional DTM digital torque verification on most models
- Lever socket compatible — most models accept optional MRU/HRU/VRU lever sockets for GSR-type use
- Double-switch safety variant — GST81WT/82WT require simultaneous two-hand activation, preventing reaction bar injuries
- Low noise, no percussion — rotary mechanism only; significantly quieter and lower vibration than impact wrenches
Typical Applications
- Structural steelwork and high-tension bolt installation (M16–M30 and above)
- Bridge and civil infrastructure construction
- Road construction and barrier systems
- Rail and railway infrastructure
- Wind turbine, shipbuilding, and pipe flange bolting (GST181/182 and above)
- Heavy industrial plant maintenance and assembly

Note — Made-to-order models: GST-601, GST-602, GST-1001, and GST-1002 are made to order. Please contact HTC to confirm lead times before ordering. Custom spline sockets are available for these models on request — torque accuracy isn’t guaranteed with non-standard reaction bars.
Note — GST32T dimensions: The GST32T (200V) has different body dimensions (350 × 380 × 110 mm) to the GST31T (100V, 365 × 455 × 130 mm). Please confirm with HTC if this is relevant to your installation.
All models: Repeat tightening accuracy ±5% · Bidirectional (tighten/loosen) · Double-insulated · Pistol-type body · Wired power supply · Supplied with reaction bar(s) and metal case
Note — GST81WT / GST82WT double-switch safety models: Require simultaneous two-hand switch activation to operate. Prevents finger crush injuries at the reaction bar. Same torque and electrical specs as GST81T/82T.
