FAQs

What size drive tools does this gauge work with?

This gauge is designed to work with 1/2" drive tools.

How do I read the gauge?

The gauge has a dial marked in degrees. Align the '0' mark at the start of your turn, and read the final degree value after you've applied the required torque and angle.

What is the holding rod for?

The holding rod keeps the gauge stable and secure during use, ensuring accurate readings.

Can I use this gauge on any fastener?

This gauge is suitable for fasteners where torque plus angle tightening specifications are required. Always check the manufacturer's specifications for the fastener.

How do I maintain the gauge?

Wipe the gauge clean after each use and store it in a clean, dry place. Inspect it periodically for wear or damage.

What happens if the gauge gets dropped?

Dropping the gauge may affect its accuracy. Check for any visible damage and verify the readings against a known standard.

Is calibration necessary?

While the gauge is manufactured to be accurate, it's a good idea to calibrate it periodically, especially with frequent use, to ensure continued precision.

Troubleshooting

The dial does not move when applying torque.

Ensure the gauge is properly seated on the fastener and that the drive tool is securely connected. Check for any obstructions preventing the gauge from rotating.

Readings seem inaccurate.

Make sure the gauge is perpendicular to the fastener, and the holding rod is properly in place. Verify that you are reading the correct scale (degrees).
