Laser introduces new range of torque wrenches

Laser Tools has introduced a new range of heavy-duty, click-type torque wrenches.

Two 3/4 in drive and two 1 in drive versions are available, all featuring a strong 24-tooth ratchet mechanism and an easy-to-read scale. The large knurled grip handle and spring-loaded locking collar aim to ensure secure operation and easy adjustment.

The 8957 3/4in drive model is 1012mm long and offers a torque range of 100 to 600Nm (73.8 – 442.5 lb-ft), with precise adjustment in 0.25Nm increments. 8958 is also a 3/4in drive model, this time 1220mm long with a torque range of 160 to 800Nm (118 – 590 lb-ft), adjustable in 4Nm increments.

The extra-heavy-duty 1in drive models sport two-piece handles to get the required extra leverage. The 8959 is 1827mm long and offers a torque range of 240 to 1200Nm (177 to 885lb-ft), this time adjustable in 6Nm increments. The 8960 model is also 1827mm long but the torque range is now 480 to 1500Nm (354 – 1106lb-ft), also adjustable in 6Nm increments.
