Ingersoll Rand 5RLNC1 Inline Pneumatic Screwdriver | 1,000 RPM | 13 - 75 (in-lbs) Torque Range

Ingersoll Rand 5RLNC1 Inline Pneumatic Screwdriver combines a 1,000 RPM free speed with an adjustable cushion clutch and a 13–75 in-lb torque range (1.5–8.5 Nm). The cushion clutch is a torque-limiting mechanism that helps control fastening force as resistance increases, making this tool suitable for repetitive screwdriving operations. Its 5 Series inline configuration positions the motor, transmission, and spindle along the same axis, providing a straight tool profile for assembly stations and fastening locations with restricted working space.

The 5RLNC1 features lever-start actuation for convenient one-handed operation, a push-button reverse control for changing rotation direction, and external torque adjustment without disassembling the tool. Its 1/4" hex quick-change drive accommodates matching screwdriver bits, while the 10.7" overall length and 0.8" side-to-center distance help operators evaluate access around adjacent components. With 16 CFM air consumption and a 1/4" NPT air inlet, this pneumatic assembly screwdriver can be incorporated into compressed-air fastening workstations where repeatable clutch-controlled tightening is required.

Features: Adjustable cushion clutch provides torque-limiting control for repetitive screw fastening operations. 1,000 RPM free speed supports controlled screw rundown during production assembly. External torque adjustment allows operators to change clutch settings without tool disassembly. Simple push-button reverse enables convenient switching between tightening and loosening operations. Lever-start actuation permits one-handed tool operation at assembly workstations. Inline handle configuration aligns the motor, transmission, and spindle for direct access to fastening points. 1/4" hex quick-change drive simplifies changing compatible screwdriver bits between fastening tasks. Compact side-to-center clearance helps accommodate screws positioned near surrounding components.

Applications:

• Production assembly lines — installing threaded fasteners in repetitive manufacturing operations requiring torque-limiting clutch control.
• Appliance and equipment assembly — tightening machine screws on housings, brackets, and mechanical components.
• Automotive component manufacturing — performing screwdriving operations on subassemblies and associated fixtures within the tool's torque range.
• Light mechanical assembly — fastening parts where adjustable torque settings help accommodate different joint requirements.
• Industrial assembly workstations — supporting repeated fastening and removal tasks using compatible 1/4" hex screwdriver bits.

FAQs:

• Q: What type of clutch does the Ingersoll Rand 5RLNC1 use?
  A: The 5RLNC1 uses an adjustable cushion clutch, which limits transmitted torque during screw tightening. It is recommended for assembly operations requiring a torque-limiting clutch rather than a direct-drive fastening tool.
• Q: How is the torque adjusted on the 5RLNC1 pneumatic screwdriver?
  A: Torque adjustments can be made externally without disassembling the tool. The manufacturer's catalog identifies a 13–54 in-lb range with the light clutch spring and a 55–75 in-lb range with the heavy clutch spring. The appropriate clutch spring and setting should be selected for the fastening application.
• Q: What air supply does the 5RLNC1 require?
  A: The manufacturer's specifications list air consumption of 16 CFM, a 1/4" NPT air inlet, and a minimum hose size of 1/4". Verify that the compressed-air system can supply the required airflow at the tool's specified operating pressure.
• Q: Can the 5RLNC1 screwdriver run screws in reverse?
  A: Yes. A push-button reverse control allows the operator to change rotation direction for screw installation or removal.
• Q: What screwdriver bits fit the Ingersoll Rand 5RLNC1?
  A: The tool has a 1/4" hex quick-change drive. Select compatible hex-shank screwdriver bits that match the fastener head and assembly requirements.
