FAQs

What is the torque range of this wrench?

The Kielder Professional Torque Wrench has a torque range of 20 Nm to 220 Nm.

What standards does this torque wrench meet?

It adheres to DIN ISO 6789 & ASME B107.300-2010 standards for accuracy and reliability.

How do I know when I've reached the set torque?

The wrench emits a clear audible "click" when the preset torque level is achieved.

Can I use this wrench for loosening bolts?

While the wrench has a switchable direction function for easy removal from tight spaces, torque application for tightening is unidirectional. For loosening, you can use the direction function, but it is not designed for breaking torque.

How should I store the torque wrench?

It is recommended to store the wrench at its lowest torque setting (20 Nm) to preserve the accuracy of the internal spring mechanism.

What size is the square drive?

This wrench features a 1/2 inch square drive.

Is calibration included?

Each wrench is meticulously calibrated and rigorously tested at the factory to meet the specified standards upon purchase. Regular recalibration is recommended based on usage and industry best practices.

Troubleshooting

Wrench does not click at the set torque.

Ensure the torque setting is correctly locked using the quick-release collar. Verify that the applied force is smooth and continuous. Check that the torque setting is within the wrench's specified range (20-220 Nm).

Difficulty in adjusting the torque setting.

Ensure the quick-release lock collar is fully disengaged before attempting to adjust the handle. Clean any debris that might be obstructing the collar mechanism.

Inconsistent torque application.

Check for any dirt or debris on the drive head or socket. Ensure smooth, steady pull is applied during use. If issues persist, professional recalibration may be required.

Ratcheting mechanism feels stiff.

Lightly lubricate the mechanism if recommended by the manufacturer (refer to specific care instructions). Ensure no foreign objects are present in the ratcheting head.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Meets stringent international calibration standards for guaranteed accuracy.
  • Robust metal construction ensures durability and long-term reliability.
  • Intuitive quick-release collar for fast and secure torque setting adjustments.
  • Audible feedback prevents under or over-tightening of fasteners.
  • Broad compatibility with standard square drive sockets adds versatility.

Cons

  • Torque application is limited to one direction, requiring detachment for reverse access.
  • May be overkill for very light-duty or non-automotive applications.
  • Requires careful handling and storage to maintain calibration accuracy.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Select the desired torque setting by rotating the handle. Align the desired value with the indicator mark on the scale.
  2. Lock the setting using the quick-release lock collar by pushing it forward.
  3. Attach the appropriate square drive socket to the wrench head.

Compatibility:

This torque wrench features a 1/2 inch square drive and is compatible with all standard 1/2 inch drive sockets. It is designed for use with fasteners requiring torque in the 20-220 Nm range.

Care:

  • Always store the torque wrench at its lowest torque setting (20 Nm) to protect the internal mechanism.
  • Clean the wrench with a soft, damp cloth. Avoid harsh chemicals or solvents.
  • Protect the wrench from impacts and moisture. Store it in its protective case when not in use.
  • Periodically check the calibration, especially after significant drops or heavy use, though it is rigorously tested at the factory.
