Mountz Inc. offers the EZ-TorQ torque tester, a cost-effective calibration tester used to verify and calibrate hand and power tools. It is a simple to use torque tester that features a built-in transducer and graphics display. The tool is ideal for all small hand torque and non-impacting torque power tools. It can calibrate hand torque screwdrivers and wrenches as well as power tools to avoid overtightening problems such as stripped fasteners and parts, under or overtorque tightening problems, which can increase liability and risk of recall. Tools should be calibrated and checked on an interval program governed by an effective quality management system. Process improvement is possible by periodically verifying a tools performance between intervals to determine whether torque tools are operating at their proper settings. Many tools don't have a locking device, and users may easily change their torque settings. Tools can be dropped or damaged between established intervals, which could effect their calibration. Verification testing is an important strategy to ensure tools are within the desired specification. Effective use of a torque analyzer is a fast and reliable method of calibrating torque tools to their proper settings or verifying the setting is still valid.
