Torque Driver Testing

An optional torque screwdriver testing kit, is available for use in testing or calibrating most torque
screwdrivers and "T" handled drivers. In addition to providing perfect driver-transducer
alignment, it allows the use of the 600TL crank for precision torque application.

Certain torque screwdrivers, "T" handled drivers, electric or pneumatic nut runners, and non-
impact power tools must be tested by hand. Double check to be sure that the transducer you
choose is capable of handling the maximum torque that you will apply. Hold the tool exactly in
line with the transducer drive while testing. Off-axis side loading may compromise the test or
calibration of the tool.
