Lock Technology 1400BB Torque Extension 160ft/lbs 215n.m [orange]

Between this and an impact driver we recently bought on Amazon, putting the lug nuts back on the RV is a breeze. Previously, we used simple hand tools (breaker bar, torque wrench, etc) to accomplish the task when had to swap a leaking tire. Have no idea how the magic works in a torque stick, but it works! Originally invented in Sweden for professional automotive shops, torque sticks have finally become affordable for your average home mechanic's kit.To test the ft/lb rating, we drove the nuts to point of torque stick reacting -- it converts rotational driving action into driver vibrating oscillations when the stick's specified 160ft/lb torque is reached -- checking the driven nuts with a torque wrench, all were within +-2 foot pounds of desired 160, which is amazing to an old-school tool person like my son.The tools are available in several "settings" to meet most common wheel mounting needs. Also, the instructions make clear these torque sticks may look like an ordinary impact extension, but they are not...as a calibrated tool, use them *only* for seating, not for removing. Standard precision tool handling disclaimers also apply: handle with care, do not drop, store properly, etc.In my case, the $20 of buying a single stick was well worth the price in time and effort we saved! Your mileage may vary, but certainly a consideration for anyone that changes wheels using a decently powered impact wrench, be it even for a simple routine tire rotation done at home.

I bought this to carry in my truck and use with my Cordless Impact gun in the event of a flat tire. I tested it against my Snap-On Torque Wrench (that was just professionally calibrated) and on over 30 torque sequences I found it to be well within acceptable tolerances. (no more than +/- 2 Ft. Lbs.)

We use it mainly for the new Ford Edge. Good quality impact torque stick.

The 1/2" has a very loose fit on my impact gun. Brand new torque stick,brand new friction ring. Poor interference fit right out of the box. Will fall right of you 1/2in anvil. It works, but very poor fitment. Would not recommend
