Question 2

What material is the Stanley 1/2" Torque Wrench made from, and what does that mean for durability?

Accepted Answer

It uses chrome vanadium steel, which provides good strength and durability for frequent use in standard tool tasks.

What is the drive size and reversing capability of this wrench?

Accepted Answer

The wrench has a 1/2 inch drive and a reversible ratchet head, allowing you to switch between clockwise and counterclockwise operation as needed.

Question 4

How does the knurled handle benefit my use of this torque wrench?

Accepted Answer

The knurled handle provides a textured grip, improving control and reducing slippage when applying precise torque in various hand positions.

Question 5

What are common applications for this torque wrench?

Accepted Answer

It's suitable for assembling, compressing, torquing bolts and nuts, and for loosening or tightening fasteners in automotive work, machinery assembly, and bike maintenance.

Question 6

How do I set the desired torque and use the wrench correctly?

Accepted Answer

First clean the bolt and threads. Then set the desired torque on the scale, align it with the pointer, and apply steady force until you reach the set value. Release and store after use.

Question 7

How should I maintain and store the torque wrench to ensure longevity?

Accepted Answer

Wipe the tool clean after use, avoid exposure to moisture, and store it in a dry place. Periodic light lubrication of the ratchet mechanism can help maintain smooth operation, and keep it away from impact or drops.

Question 9

Can this torque wrench be used for metric bolts, and how do I convert the readings if needed?

Accepted Answer

The wrench measures torque in ft-lb (and Nm is approximately equivalent). To work with metric bolts, you can use the approximate conversion: 1 ft-lb ≈ 1.356 Nm. For precise metric torque, set your target value in Nm (converted from your specification) as needed.
