Adjustable Torque-Limiting Socket Adapters

Socket Adapter

Pin Kit

To set torque, remove the snap ring and locking plate and adjust the nut. When the torque setting is reached, the adapter clicks and releases. These tools let you accurately measure or limit the torque you apply to prevent overtightening and damaging fasteners.

Use clockwise and counterclockwise adapters to tighten fasteners in both directions. You’ll need to change tools to loosen the fasteners.

Use clockwise adapters to tighten fasteners in the clockwise direction as well as loosen them in the counterclockwise direction. There’s no need to change tools.

Factory-Set Torque-Limiting Socket Adapters

Socket Adapter

Pin Kit

Already set to a specific torque limit, these adapters audibly click and release when you reach that setting to prevent overtightening.

Adapters with a calibration certificate come with a document traceable to NIST that states the adapters passed a test for accuracy.
