A torque tool should be considered as a testing aid that is used for the controlled tightening and loosening of screw connections. Like any other test equipment, torque tools require sensitive handling, appropriate storage and regular care to prevent influences that can distort the set torque values.
Torque tools can only be used effectively and reliably if the set values are applied correctly. A torque tool should be checked, calibrated and, if necessary, adjusted or repaired after 5,000 load changes at the latest or, if the number of load changes cannot be determined, every 12 months.
The Wera Torque Service in Wuppertal (Germany) offers you excellent service packages just like our official Torque Service partners in several countries. These partners and further information can be found on https://www-de.wera.de/de/torque-service/.
