Description
Energy and heavy-equipment sites often have a band of joints that sit between shop tools and the largest hex drivers. The Snap-on ATP5000 torque multiplier covers that band. It is a digital, powered unit with a 1-1/4 in male square drive, rated to 5,000 ft-lb.
Key figures at a glance
- Output drive: 1-1/4 in male square.
- Rated output: 5,000 ft-lb, which is roughly 6,800 N·m.
- Control: a digital set point, so the motor stops at your target.
- Angle function: none on this model, while the ATP5000E version adds it.
Matching 5,000 ft-lb to your joints
Most torque tools give their best results in the middle and upper part of the scale. So this model makes sense when your common targets sit well above what a 1 in drive tool handles, yet below the top rating. For example, it suits large pump bases, compressor frames and many pipe flanges. However, if your top joint goes past 5,000 ft-lb, step up to a larger hex-drive unit rather than pushing this one to its limit.
Sockets for a 1-1/4 in square drive
A 1-1/4 in drive is less common than 3/4 in or 1 in, though. Therefore, check your socket stock before the job, not on the day. Use impact-rated or heavy-duty sockets that fit the drive with no adapter, because stacked adapters add play and risk. Also plan where the reaction arm will rest, since a powered multiplier pushes back hard.
Where the Snap-on ATP5000 torque multiplier earns its place
For example, plant maintenance teams use the Snap-on ATP5000 torque multiplier during shutdowns, when dozens of joints must close in a short window. Wind and power crews also use it for base and coupling bolts. Likewise, mining and port workshops use it on large frames and slewing parts. In each case, the digital target means the crew spends less time on checks and re-torque.
Care between jobs
After each job, wipe the output square and the reaction arm of the Snap-on ATP5000 torque multiplier. Next, store the unit dry and in its case. Then follow the Snap-on manual for charging and service. In addition, send it for an independent torque check at the interval your quality system sets.

FAQ
Is 5,000 ft-lb enough for my flange bolts?
Check your bolt chart. If the top target sits clearly below 5,000 ft-lb, this model fits. If not, ask Lost in HCM about a larger unit.
Is there a version with angle measurement?
Yes. The ATP5000E has the same drive and rating and adds angle measurement.
Which sockets do I need?
You need sockets with a 1-1/4 in square drive. Heavy-duty or impact-rated sockets work best.
