Portable TEKTON Dual-Direction Torque Wrench for DIYers

The TEKTON 1/4 in. Drive Click Torque Wrench allows you to work with confidence, eliminating guessing and the common tendency to overtighten fasteners. Calibrated to an accuracy of +/- 4% in the clockwise direction and +/- 6% in the counterclockwise direction, this wrench ensures that fasteners are correctly tightened to a manufacturer's torque specifications, preventing expensive damage caused by overstressed or poorly secured parts.

Featuring a simple and easy-to-use design, the wrench measures torque in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. To measure torque, the user turns the spring-loaded adjustment collar to the desired setting (inch pounds or Newton meters) and releases it to lock in place. The fastener is then tightened in a slow and controlled motion. When the preset torque value is reached, a reliable mechanical operation inside the handle produces a click that can be heard and felt, alerting the user to stop applying force.

Built for consistent performance and years of dependable service, the wrench's mechanical design doesn't need batteries, and the steel and aluminum construction has no internal plastic parts to wear out. Importantly, this wrench is shipped pre-calibrated and ready to use. To help maintain calibration, it should be stored at its lowest setting of 10 in.lb./1.1 Nm when not in use. Users are advised to read and understand the operator's manual, including all safety information, before first use.

The wrench has a range of 10-150 in.-lb. (1.1-16.9 Nm) and an increment of 1 in.-lb. (0.113 Nm). It features a reversible, finely geared 72-tooth ratchet head that measures torque in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions for regular and reverse threaded fasteners. The wrench is 8-13/16 inches in length and is made in Taiwan.

The package includes the 1/4 in. drive torque wrench, a zipper storage case, and an operator's manual with a torque conversion chart. With its precision and reliability, the TEKTON 1/4 in. Drive Click Torque Wrench is an essential tool for ensuring that fasteners are properly tightened, protecting valuable equipment and components.
