Testing & Servicing

For testing the torque wrench either use a torque analyzer or
torque transducer within the range of the torque wrench.  Make
sure you apply the torque slowly and smoothly.  

In order to maintain accuracy, it is crucial that torque control
measuring equipment be calibrated regularly. 

We recommend a general once a year calibration interval.
However, it is the user’s organization that must determine suitable
intervals based upon equipment performance, application, degree
of usage and management objectives.

For calibration, re-adjustment or repairs, please send the tool to
one of our 3 service locations.
