The W-PT test bar is easy to use with AC yokes weighing 10 pounds or 4.6 kg; when just one bar is required. Several bars are conveniently stacked and fastened together for the DC yoke method, illustrated to the right.

Additional Information on Usage

Testing MPI Yokes is usually done with the Legs Straight for ease of the test. Leg Spacing should have no effect on the Lifting Force of any Yoke (AC, AC/DC, 12Volt, Cordless, or Permanent Magnet), as the losses in the Leg Hinges is the same if they are straight or adjusted to 90 degrees. The bottom of your feet must remain flat and in full contact with the pull test bar during use. This may require tightening of the Leg Hinges, or by cutting a small piece of wood (non-metallic) to fit between the fully extended legs. However, the legs should be loosened when testing, so the operator can be mindful of the ‘Contact’ with the workpiece. Pull Testing is fast and easy with any AC Yoke, however operators must be mindful of Pole Spacing with DC Yokes. Works with virtually all specifications.
