CLASSIC TORQUE WRENCH – LIMITED DEGREES OF RELEASE
The torque increases at the growing of the applied force. At the achievement of the set torque – threshold “set torque” – the wrench breaks and for 3° / 6° it doesn’t exercise any torque. If the operator doesn’t stop to apply force during this gap, the torque begins again to grow, overcoming the set torque.
BREAKING TORQUE WRENCH – 20 DEGREES OF RELEASE
The torque increases at the growing of the applied force. At the achievement of the set torque – threshold “set torque” – the wrench breaks and for 20° it doesn’t exercise any torque, gap wider than the previous one, as shown in the graphic.The operator has more margin to stop to apply the force, preventing the overcoming of the set torque.
SLIPPING TORQUE WRENCH
The torque increases at the growing of the applied force. At the achievement of the set torque – threshold “set torque” – the wrench breaks and ceases to exercise torque. Continuing to apply force, the torque increases until the threshold “set torque” brea- king again, preventing the overcoming of the set torque. It is not applicable the rearm concept as it is not necessary to re-set the break mechanism.
