Frequently Asked Questions
How does this torque extension work with impact wrenches?
Simply insert the extension between your 1/2-inch impact wrench and socket. When 120 ft-lb is reached, the extension flexes to absorb additional impacts and prevent further tightening. This automatic limiting action protects wheel components from damage while maintaining productivity during tire service operations.
Does this torque extension require calibration like torque wrenches?
No calibration needed. The chrome molybdenum steel construction maintains consistent 120 ft-lb torque output throughout its lifetime without any maintenance or adjustments required. Unlike electronic torque tools, this mechanical design eliminates calibration schedules and ensures reliable performance in demanding shop environments.
Which vehicles is the 120 ft-lb rating best suited for?
This torque extension is ideal for full-size sedans, light trucks, SUVs, and performance cars with steel wheels that require higher torque specifications than smaller passenger vehicles. The 120 ft-lb rating matches OEM specifications for most domestic and import vehicles with larger wheel assemblies and heavier-duty applications.
How does this compare to regular torque sticks?
Unlike torque sticks that can wear down and lose accuracy, this chrome molybdenum steel extension maintains consistent torque output and requires no recalibration over its lifetime. The superior metallurgy provides better fatigue resistance and more precise flex characteristics compared to standard carbon steel torque limiting tools.
Why is the white color coating important?
The white powder coating provides instant visual identification in tool boxes, eliminating guesswork about torque ratings during fast-paced tire service operations where speed matters. This color-coding system reduces errors and improves workflow efficiency when technicians need to quickly select the correct torque rating from multiple extensions.
