Cleco 34RAA33AX3 Clutch Shut-Off Pneumatic Angle Nutrunner | Lever Start | 545 RPM | 12 - 24 (ft-lbs) Torque Range | 3/8" Drive

When repeatable torque control matters on assembly fasteners, the Cleco 34RAA33AX3 Clutch Shut-Off Pneumatic Angle Nutrunner gives technicians a compact right-angle fastening tool for controlled rundown in tight work areas. Its 12 - 24 ft-lbs torque range supports medium-duty assembly joints where consistent clamp load matters more than raw breakaway power, while the 545 RPM free speed helps balance production pace with fastening accuracy. The 3/8" square drive accepts compatible impact-rated sockets, and the angle head reaches around brackets, housings, frames, and fixtured components where straight tools cannot align properly.

This 34 Series model uses Cleco’s Clecomatic Clutch, a shut-off clutch system that stops the tool when the preset torque is reached to improve fastening repeatability. The lever start provides controlled actuation, the collar reverse supports quick direction changes, and the indexable angle head helps position the tool for different fastening orientations on production benches, repair stations, and industrial assembly lines.

Tech Tip: To increase tool performance, extend tool life, and lessen repair costs, use it with a Filter-Regulator-Lubricator FRL)

Applications:

• Production assembly — controlled tightening of bolts and nuts where repeatable torque shut-off is required.
• Automotive and off-road equipment assembly — fastening brackets, housings, subassemblies, and components in restricted spaces.
• Industrial MRO — service work on machinery, guards, fixtures, and assemblies where a right-angle tool improves access.
• Rail, appliance, and general manufacturing — repetitive fastening where torque consistency and operator control matter.
• Fixture and bench work — fastening in jigs, cells, and workstations where straight nutrunners cannot line up with the fastener.

FAQs:

• Q: What does a clutch shut-off nutrunner do?
  A: A clutch shut-off nutrunner automatically stops driving when the preset torque is reached. This helps improve repeatability compared with manually stopping the tool by feel.
• Q: Is the 34RAA33AX3 used for loosening stuck bolts?
  A: No. This is a controlled-torque assembly nutrunner, not an impact wrench. It is intended for fastening and controlled rundown within its 12 - 24 ft-lbs torque range.
• Q: What air setup should be used with this Cleco nutrunner?
  A: Manufacturer data lists performance at 90 PSI, with a 3/8" NPT air inlet, 5/16" minimum hose I.D., and 34 SCFM air consumption. Use a properly sized air line and FRL to maintain consistent tool performance.
• Q: What does side-to-center distance mean on an angle nutrunner?
  A: Side-to-center distance is the clearance from the side of the angle head to the centerline of the drive. The 0.67" side-to-center dimension helps determine whether the tool can reach fasteners near walls, flanges, or adjacent components.
• Q: Does this tool include sockets?
  A: Sockets are not listed as standard equipment. The standard equipment listed for this 34 Series tool includes operating instructions and service manual, suspension bail, and clutch adjustment tool.
