Norbar 3/4in Adjustable Dual Scale Torque Wrench 300-1000NM - 120115

Talk the torque with a Norbar Industrial Ratchet Torque Wrench 3/4in Square Drive

The Norbar Torque Wrench is an excellent solution to the torque wrenches often seen in use with professional mechanics, technicians and engine builders. Although it may just look like a big ratchet, the Norbar Torque Wrench has a new handle which provides a more comfort and helps guide the operators hand to the correct position.

You might be wondering why such specific torque settings are required when working on your car, but it is really something you shouldn't overlook. Certain driveline components including something as simple as your wheels have recommended torque settings to ensure they remain tight throughout heat cycles, road vibration and other kinds of abuse so you stay safe and intact on the roads. Other instances where torque wrenches are required is when assembling vital engine components such as con-rod bolts, head bolts, water pumps and so forth. Torque settings are required here to ensure that no damage is done to components or the engine block by overtightening and stretching threads or leaving things too loose and causing catastrophic engine failure in the future. Check your manufacturer specifications for exact torque figures when using this tool as all engines and drivelines vary greatly. Keep an eye out for TTY or 'torque to yield' settings too, this requires you to tighten to a specified setting and then add a quarter or half turn for example.

Norbar was established from a wartime need and incorporated in 1943 and became the first company in Britain to commercially manufacture torque wrenches. The initial demand was driven by the need for the gasket-less cylinder head of the Rolls Royce Merlin engine to be accurately tightened. Bill Brodey and his partner Ernest Thornitt obtained a licence from Britain's wartime Government to begin manufacture of torque wrenches and Norbar was born.
