Proto J6168F 1/4″ DR Dial Torque Wrench Features
- Precision Accuracy: With a torque range of 6 to 30 inch-pounds (in-lb) and 7 to 35 centimeter-kilograms (cm-kg), this wrench delivers precise torque settings accurate to ±4% in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, from 20% to 100% of full scale. Such precision is essential for ensuring that fasteners are tightened correctly, avoiding under or over-tightening that could lead to damage or failure.
- Durable Construction: The all-steel or aluminum torque transfer components are designed for industrial use, ensuring the wrench can withstand the rigors of heavy-duty applications. The alloy steel head and handle, along with the chrome finish, provide corrosion resistance and longevity.
- Dual Scale Convenience: Featuring a dual scale (English/metric), this tool caters to a wide range of applications, allowing for versatile use across different measurement systems. The clear dial and memory needle make it easy to record and replicate precise torque values.
- Ergonomic Design: The cushion grip handle offers comfort and control, reducing hand fatigue during extended use. The torsion drive design ensures that the accuracy of the wrench is not affected by hand position, allowing for more consistent torque application.
- Versatility: The wrench is equipped with a ratcheting head for forward and reverse rotation, making it adaptable to various tightening or loosening scenarios. It is also tether capable, allowing for safe use at heights or in environments where securing tools is necessary.
- Comprehensive Calibration: Each wrench comes with a calibration certificate, ensuring that it meets ANSI B107.14M, EN26789, and ISO 6789 standards right out of the box. The wrench undergoes extended data testing and is calibrated to NIST standards, giving professionals confidence in its accuracy and reliability.
- Protective Storage: Included with the wrench is a protective blow molded box, providing safe and convenient storage to protect the tool when not in use.
