Product Details
’Breaking’ Ratchet Handle
From RS PRO, this torque wrench is compatible with 1/4 inch driver bits, and is designed to prevent over-tightening when fastening nuts and bolts. The tool applies a pre-set level of torque before 'breaking', preventing you from potentially applying too much force to a fastener.
This torque wrench works when used either clockwise or anti-clockwise, and is ideal for use in low torque applications.
Torque Setting is Required before Use

When set correctly, lock torque setting by re-inserting 3mm hexagon key into grub screw and turn clockwise. Do not attempt to adjust torque setting without first releasing the lock.
