Laser 5520 Torque Wrench 1/2"D 80 - 400Nm

Product Information

If you need a car to tow a trailer or caravan, you’ll need the extra strength of a high torque engine to help pull the extra weight. Factory calibrated to ±3% for optimum accuracy and the improved mechanism ensures an extended accuracy even over time Finally, it’s also worth considering how much space you have to work with. If you’re working in a tight space, you’ll need an impact wrench that has a smaller profile and is more compact. By taking all of these things in mind, you can be sure to choose the right impact wrench for your needs. How do you know if an impact wrench has the right amount of torque for the job you need it to do? If you want to convert kgf-cm to Nm, all you need to do is multiply the first value by 0.09807 - one-hundredth of the gravitational acceleration of Earth:

Digital: A digital torque wrench has an LCD screen that lets you set the torque value and registers the torque you’re applying to the fastener as you tighten. The wrench then notifies you when you reach your desired torque value in one or more ways: a beep, a vibration in the handle, a flashing light on the screen, or some combination thereof. A digital torque wrench is the most accurate and easiest to use but also usually the most expensive. The Newton-metre is a measurement unit typically used to describe the torque exerted by force. It is also occasionally used to express the rotational speed of an object. The Newton-metre is equal to the force of one Newton applied to an object at a distance of one meter from the fulcrum. Both handle and body material is resistant to all chemicals in common automotive and industrial use making it a durable productTorque wrenches are most commonly available with ¼-, ⅜-, and ½-inch drives; the latter two sizes are the most popular and versatile for automotive applications. A ¼-inch drive is commonly found on power tools and works well on small engines (like landscape equipment) and plumbing and HVAC components. New Timestrip® Feature - Torque wrenches should be calibrated once a year as a minimum, more frequently in harsh environments and with high levels of usage. Timestrip® provides a visual indication that the wrench is due for re-calibration and has 3, 6, 9 and 12 month graduations What are some factors to consider when choosing an impact wrench with the right amount of torque for your needs?

Specifications ½" push thru sq dr 60 - 340 Nm / 50 - 250lbs.ft Length: 593mm Weight: 1.48kgSupplied in blow moulded box Low-torque impact wrenches are designed for applications where a smaller amount of torque is needed, such as when removing lug nuts from a car. They are typically lighter and more compact than their high-torque counterparts, making them easier to handle.Ideal for use by professionals such as plumbers, electricians, engineers, mechanics, construction workers as well as DIY enthusiasts Depending on the wrench, the torque range can be anywhere from 0 to 300 foot-pounds, 0 to 1,000 inch-pounds, or 0 to 400 newton meters. To perform most automotive work, you’ll need a wrench with a range of 10 to 150 foot-pounds or 10 to 200 inch-pounds (and the corresponding newton meter). A smaller range of around 10 to 80 foot-pounds is typically sufficient for plumbing or HVAC jobs. Drive size Material of the bolt- harder metals will require more torque to loosen, so if you’re working with particularly stubborn bolts, you’ll need an impact wrench with more power.

Imagine you’re tightening a nut with a spanner. Using a short spanner takes a lot of effort to tighten the nut. Using a longer spanner takes less effort to tighten the nut to the same extent. The longer spanner has more torque. For example, if someone plies a force of one Newton on a lever at a distance of one meter from the fulcrum, they would be said to be applying a torque of one Newton-metre. Similarly, if an object has a rotational speed of one meter per second, it would be said to rotate at a rate of one Newton-metre per second. So, if you are looking for an impact wrench that can handle more demanding jobs, you should consider a higher torque rating that can generate up to 1000 Nm. How does the amount of torque impact a tool’s performance?Yes. Low torque engines are less economical because they have to work harder than high torque engines. That’s why diesel cars are a good choice if you take long, high-speed motorway journeys. They will be much more fuel-efficient than a petrol car. What about electric cars? Do they have lots of torque? When choosing an impact wrench, remember a few factors to ensure you’re getting the right amount of torque for your needs. When it comes to torque, there are two main types of impact wrenches: low torque and high torque. Both have their advantages and disadvantages, and the best choice for a particular application depends on the desired outcome.
