Torque Angle Meters is used for all torque-to-yield fastener applications. When installing fasteners which are torque angle tightened, a predetermined seating torque and standard torque wrench are usually used first to remove any compliance from the joint. The fastener is then tightened to the specified additional portion of a turn measured in degrees. Tool is calibrated in 5 increments with a rotating pointer. The 1/2 male and female square drive and an adjustable holding rod hold the gauge in position during use.
Torque converter is a hydrodynamic drive component utilizing three annular bladed parts to absorb power from a prime mover and automatically adjust its operating output speed to match the load demand. The torque converter input shaft is connected to an impeller, which imports momentum to the fluid filling the converter. This moving fluid impacts a turbine, causing it to turn. The turbine turns the output shaft, thus delivering power to the transmission.
