Regular readers of this blog will tell you that we talk quite a bit about RAD torque tools. We’re going to continue that trend in this week’s blog post by discussing RAD’s line of wheel nut torque wrenches.
RAD wheel nut torque wrenches were designed solely for one job: wheel nut bolting, where torque control is critical. Accidents resulting from improperly tightened wheel nuts are a serious concern.
Impact wrenches are particularly notorious for this issue. They also increase the risk of HAVS (hand-arm vibration syndrome) injuries.
Features of RAD’s wheel nut torque wrenches include:
- A high level of accuracy to prevent overtightening or under-tightening
- Vibration free
- Numerous configurations, making them ideal for tight clearances
- Extended reaction point for safe, quick operation
- Accuracy to ensure correctly-tightened wheels
