Proto J6232CERT torque multiplier makes tightening or loosening of stubborn nuts and bolts easy. It finds applications in the automotive, construction and manufacturing industries. This device reduces physical strain and saves time.
Working Mechanism:
- First, choose the socket that matches the size of the fastener you are working on. Ensure that it securely fits onto the head of Proto torque multiplier.
- Place the socket end of the torque multiplier onto the fastener you want to tighten or loosen.
- Hold the handle of the torque multiplier and apply a steady, even force to turn it in the desired direction (clockwise for tightening and counterclockwise for loosening).
- Keep an eye on the display to ensure you do not exceed the desired torque level.
- Once you have achieved the desired torque, release the handle.
Features:
- Proto torque multiplier has a torque ratio of 1:18.5, allowing it to produce up to 3200 lb-ft.
- It has chrome finish to prevent corrosion.
- This torque multiplier has overload protection to avoid wear due to excessive force application.
- It has a +/-5% accuracy and provides consistent torque readings.
- Proto J6232CERT torque multiplier utilises a two-stage planetary gear system for easy operation.
Compatible Accessories:
- Proto J6201 Air Drive: This accessory provides powered input to reduce the operator's fatigue.
Frequently Asked Questions:
Q. What is the difference between a torque multiplier and an impact wrench?
A. A torque multiplier is a hand-operated tool that provides precise torque control. An impact wrench, on the other hand, uses high-impact forces to apply torque rapidly, making it suitable for tasks like removing lug nuts on vehicle wheels.
Q. What are the signs that a torque multiplier may need maintenance or calibration?
A. Signs of potential issues include reduced accuracy, unusual noises, difficulty in turning the handle or visible wear and tear.
