Over the past few weeks we’ve looked at a cordless ratchet that can save wrenching time, a torque multiplier to bust loose a lug nut when your impact wrench won’t do the job and a drill ...

The torque stick’s function is quite simple: allow torque up to a preset amount in order to ensure a nut or bolt is both tight enough and not too tight, and in a quick, no-brains-required fashion.

Torque sticks, also known as torque-limiting extension bars, come in sets, each in a different thickness and color. The thicker the stick, the higher the torque to the fastener. The amount of force on ...

Some torque wrenches can tighten a nut or bolt all the way up to 300-ft.lbs or more, ... 250-lb.ft. limit. 8. GearWrench Micrometer Torque Wrench. Check Price.

Lug nuts and wheel studs are prone to wear and tear and rust damage. Stay on top of their condition by re-torquing the lug nuts every 5,000 miles or whenever service requires the wheels to be removed.

This was quite enough to do our test tasks, including the large hub nut. We like having five torque-limiting options (100, 150, 200, 300 and 400Nm), all clearly marked and selectable by a button ...

Two-piece 33 mm flange nuts used with hub-piloted wheels should be tightened to a torque of 450 to 500 foot-pounds. Other nut designs have different torque requirements. Check the manufacturer's ...

The lowest load that leads to failure determines the limiting torque. In the first instance, calculate the tensile-stress area of a bolt from ASME B1.1-1989 Appendix B using ...

Biotech Fluidics announces Intuitive™ PEEK Nut - a unique patented finger tight fitting designed for low pressure tubing assemblies. Benefiting from a torque limiting design feature - Intuitive™ ...

where T = torque, K = nut factor, sometimes called the friction factor, D = bolt diameter, and F = bolt tension generated during tightening. This expression is often called the short-form equation.
