Thank you Gary, the material of the Steelman torque sticks determines how the torque sticks work. Commonly referred to as Swedish Spring Steel, it's an alloy specially formulated to meet a certain strength level and is readily available for purchase There is a torque of 50 lbs When objects are made of spring steel, they will return to their original shape, regardless of Your question has been answered, I hope. Feel free to reach out to us if you need any further assistance.
In the case of an impact tool, its torque-limiting capabilities will only function with an impact tool, if you use it with a hand socket wrench.
A gun used to impact it is designed for it. The ratchet is not going to limit the torque, it will just be an extension, so you cannot use it without it.
I appreciate you taking the time to contact me! This is the STEELMAN 50092A 1/2-inch frame The Yellow 65 foot Inch Drive Design and development of the lb Torque Extension took place in the United States, but the product is manufactured in Taiwan currently.

In this case, the fastener is not continually torqued, but instead is tapped in a series of There is a specific amount of twisting that the torque stick will do. As soon as the fastener is tightened a certain amount, the torque stick begins to twist with every tap, absorption any rotation that might otherwise cause the socket to twist. When using these, it is important to use them directly on a socket, and the socket should be as short Attach it to the universal joint or other extension before using. Ensure the torque stick and impact wrench are properly inserted into the socket and the torque stick is properly inserted into the impact wrench. If you tighten a fastener, such as a lug nut, and watch what happens when you tighten it, you can make sure it's working properly However, you will not be able to turn the socket by applying the impact wrench. Lastly, I will give some insight as to the product The quality of the product is excellent. The sticks have a very solid build, and they are colored The torque value has been well labeled and is coded. I am amazed at the quality of this case. The product is excellent overall, and I highly recommend it.
So far, I have been able to use my 1/2" Milwaukee Fuel impact wrench to drive them, as well as my Torque wrench to tighten them the last bit. There are times when the nut won't budge tighter, which makes me wonder why it doesn't. The system seems to require some sort of technique to use, at least for my purposes. Those would be the prices for a 95 or 96 foot-long home if they were perfect I would definitely go for the lb version.
I bought this software because I make a pretty good living from car repair. I have been using a torque wrench to tighten my lugnuts previously, but at the end of a project it's a chore to screw the lugnuts on, tighten them, lower the car a little (for the front wheels), and Even if it's not hard, by the time I get to the end, I'm usually just ready to end what I'm doing. The reason I was hesitant to buy a torque limiting bar was because I've heard they are inaccurate. it's not easy. I chose to take a chance on it, however, based on the positive reviews it received on Amazon. Compared to other reviews, I have to admit that this bar has good performance, and I can verify (with torque wrench) that it's relatively accurate as well. At this point, I am satisfied enough with it to be able to use it without manually rechecking torque.
When a torque specification on a stick is reached the extension stops turning, so the only thing you need to do is tighten the socket when the extension stops turning. As an add-on, I used an air impact gun and electric impact gun to get lug nuts as close to the threads as possible before I used had no trouble turning the lug nuts with my torque wrench, so the value on the stick seemed accurate on the stick, although it should only be used to put lugs on, not to take them.
As a last step before using a torque wrench to apply final torque to lug nuts, I use this to zap them on with my impact When I use my electric torque wrench to test it, I can clearly see how it works and hear its operation. It is almost always in close tolerance and my torque wrench only needs to apply the slightest bit extra torque to verify it. The application works as expected. However, all final torque values should be set using.
I've edited it IS NOT ABLE TO Purchasing this allowed me to not overtorque wheels with my impact and eliminate the need for me to use a torque wrench for this purpose. I have tested it and it works well. It also stops at 80 foot pounds of torque exactly. This is truly a great product! I highly recommend it! I've edited it Tore my wheels at 80 foot pounds but not in any way. My car made a constant clicking noise while I was driving at about 35 mph after that, so I When I inspected the lug nuts I found that the lug nuts were finger tight, and I was able to remove them by hand with no tool needed. I am sure that I did not make a mistake. My torque wrench is going back to being used by hand now. I gave it power until it stopped rotating the lug nuts. Clearly, I was not able to use the tool until after the return period expired, so I am stuck with a defective and useless It is foolish!.
We tested with an impact wrench and found that torque limitation occurs within 2 pounds of the Once the torque had been stopped, measurement was taken with a To use this, an impact wrench must be used. An extension twists upon impact, and the degrees of twist increase as Finally, the extension twists so far that the socket is no longer able to turn. What that means is that it works like that. Please be aware that this torque limiter will not work with an ordinary socket wrench, since the force applied is constant, and not applied in a short burst or impact.
Has achieved various milestones between 40 and 80 80 lbf for the blue specification! 60 lbf for the blue I can still use my torque wrench after it to bring the torque up to spec but I would never, ever, ever trust a torque stick. It does not overtighten, so I can still use my torque wrench after it to bring the torque back up to spec.
