Snap-on PTQ1WTCUP482 Standard Cup, PTM Wheel Torque Reaction Cup for IM482 and IMM382 Sockets

Description

Snap-on’s wheel torque chart pairs the Snap-on PTQ1WTCUP482 standard cup with two sockets, the IM482 and the IMM382. So it is the cup to stock when a depot runs either one on its truck wheels. Together with a wheel torque extension, it gives a PTM pneumatic wrench a firm reaction point at the hub. The operator then guides the tool rather than fighting the load.

IM482 and SIM482: same digits, different cups

The deep socket SIM482 does not belong in this cup. CAT1500i lists it under the PTQ1WTCPD562 deep well cup, along with the SIM462, SIM522 and SIM562. Therefore read the full stamp on the socket, letters included, before you pick a cup. A standard IM482 or an IMM382 goes in the PTQ1WTCUP482.

Where the Snap-on PTQ1WTCUP482 standard cup sits in the chart

So this cup sits in the middle of the five, and it is one of two that take both an IM and an IMM socket.

Building the PTM wheel set

A wheel set stacks four parts: the PTM, a wheel torque extension, the cup and the socket. For instance, CAT1500i lists the WTE4G72L9 9 in extension for the PTM740, which runs 147-740 ft-lb (200-1,000 N·m). The PTM line as a whole spans 74-4,500 ft-lb with ±5% accuracy. Each tool ships with a torque vs. pressure chart, so you set the output through air pressure. In addition, the PTMFRL filter/regulator helps hold that pressure steady. Ask Lost in HCM to confirm the PTQ1WTCUP482 suits your PTM and extension.

Shift checks on the Snap-on PTQ1WTCUP482 standard cup

Before each shift, check the cup bore for burrs and the rim for cracks. Next, drop the socket in and make sure it sits square without rocking. Clear out grit and rust flakes, because debris can tilt the socket. Also keep each cup paired with its sockets on the shadow board. Finally, use the PTM’s secondary trigger as Snap-on intends, so hands stay clear of pinch points.
