Sykes-Pickavant torque
Sykes-Pickavant has just announced two new
additions to its torque wrench programme.
For many years, Sykes-Pickavant has been a
supplier of torque wrenches in the automotive aftermarket,
with its ‘Motorq’ range of professional torque wrenches. Now, the ‘Motorq’ range is being complemented
with two additional new ranges.
‘TufTorq’ is a new range of heavy duty industrial quality
torque wrenches which are suitable for rugged operating
conditions thanks to their wide-angled’ break mechanism
design. This style of torque wrench features a fixed, push-thru square drive, which
Sykes-Pickavant says is both more accurate and stronger than a ratchet type mechanism.
There are 6 models in the new range in
3
/8 , ½ and ¾ drive formats, covering from 2.5Nm all
the way to 800Nm.
‘Handitorq’ is a new range of competitively priced torque wrenches, specially designed for
the automotive market, featuring quick-release reversible ratchets, which provide bi-directional
capability. There are 4 models in the new ‘Handitorq’ range in ¼,
3
/8 and ½ drive formats, covering from 4Nm to 340Nm.
All new Sykes-Pickavant torque wrenches are supplied in moulded storage cases for protection, and with calibration certificates.
