TS ISO 17066
Hydraulic tools - Vocabulary
This International Standard provides a vocabulary
for the various types of hydraulic tools, fixed and
portable, and for the attachments that are used with
them. The terms are given by category: general,
tools for removing and shaping material, tools for
assembly work.
NOTE 1 The use of the terms “tool” and “machine” can
be confusing in the field of hydraulic powered tools.
“Hydraulic tool” is used for hand-held machines and “fixed
hydraulic tool” for larger machines, often suspended or
mounted on a carrier. However, the terms “tool” and “bit”
are also used for the inserted drill, file, chisel, etc. that is
fitted to the machine spindle. In order to differentiate
between hydraulic tool and inserted tool, the term “power
tool” can be used for the former.
NOTE 2 Individual tools are usually designed to
operate within a maximum specific flow category given by
the European Hydraulic Tools Manufacturer Association
(EHTMA). Some hydraulic tools incorporate a flow control
to limit maximum speed or provide adjusting speed.

About This Item
TS ISO 17066 is a vocabulary standard for hydraulic tools. It brings together the terms and definitions used for hydraulic machines, including hand-held tools as well as larger fixed machines or machines mounted on carriers, and it also covers the attachments used with them. The standard is intended to align terminology in a field where the words used for the machine, the inserted working element, and the assembly can easily overlap.
How the terminology is organised
The document groups terms by category so that related concepts are easier to distinguish. In general technical usage, hydraulic tools convert pressurised fluid energy into mechanical force and motion, which is why they appear in both portable and stationary forms. Because the same platform may carry interchangeable inserts such as drills, files, chisels, or similar working elements, clear vocabulary is important to separate the power tool itself from the inserted tool.
What this kind of standard helps clarify
- General terminology used across the field
- Tools for removing and shaping material
- Tools for assembly work
- Attachments and inserted working elements used with hydraulic tools
As a vocabulary standard, ISO 17066 supports consistent communication rather than prescribing a test method or performance limit. The notes in the source material add useful context: some tools are associated with maximum flow categories referenced by EHTMA, and some include flow control to limit speed or provide speed adjustment. These details help explain how hydraulic tools are commonly described and specified in practice.
