Superior technology offers interchangeable heads to fit all registered Hammer Union sizes making you more efficient and safer.
Our innovative hammer union tool is a highly efficient and safe way to tighten or loosen hammer union connections.

The HU Tool and interchangeable heads will fit on all registered Hammer Union sizes so it’s the only tool you’ll need.

Product Features
Safe
The safety increases exponentially when you remove a hammer from a situation and add a tool that does not require a dangerous swinging motion to operate.
Hands-Free Operation
Once the tool is applied to the Hammer Union connection, no hands are required to hold the tool in place. Additionally, the tool has an optional handle that can be attached, if preferred, in order to hold the tool safely.
Spring Head
The head features the same patented open-gate design as Torq/Lite’s JN Series wrenches, but has a spring-latch feature that makes applying and removing the tool very simple.
Interchangeable Heads
With the HU Tool, our interchangeable heads are the only thing you'll need to change. As the tool advances the head compresses onto the pipe allowing the reaction member to push against the hammer union lugs to either tighten or loosen the connection. The HU Tool, and our entire range of heads, will fit on all registered Hammer Union connections.
Non-Destructive
Throughout their lifespan, the Hammer Union lugs can take a lot of beatings - literally. The HU Tool reduces the impact on those lugs, saving replacement time and costs.
No Hands
Once the tool is applied to the Hammer Union connection, the operator does not need to use his hands to hold the tool in place. Alternatively, if the operator so chooses, a handle is provided so that he can hold the tool safely.
Reduces Fatigue & More Control
Swinging at a hammer is not only dangerous, it can wear you out. The HU Tool saves the shoulders of the operators, keeping them safe, and making them more productive. Also, the load is able to be applied to the connection in a stable, constant, and controlled manner.
