Description
The Ritchey Professional Torque Wrench is ideal when working with light bike parts to make sure you don't over tighten the bolt or screw.
The Torque range is from 2 to 16 Nm: 2 Nm is good for small aluminum screws, 16 Nm is enough for big M6 bolts used in some seatposts.
A wider scale wouldn't allow the same precision at the range extremes.
16 bits (standard 1/4" inch size fitting) are provided with the key, allowing to use the torque-wrench on almost any screw present on modern bicycles.
A 70mm long '5' hex bit allows to tighten road-brake levers recessed bolt. All bits are manufactured from S2 special steel, with very high (62 Hrc) surface hardness, to ensure maximum durability.
Light aluminum body to keep the weight down to a record-breaking 169g per key, less than half the weight of heavy industrial wrenches often used for bicycles.
Low weight of the key enhance the torqueing sensitiveness at low torque values, without mistaking the effort to hold the tool with the applied torque.
Adjustment knob and bit-holder made out of steel, to better stand daily use.
Torque tolerance is +-4%, according to UNI EN ISO 6789:2004 norm.
The safety package protects the tool from shocks and keeps the overall size down to 17x4x4 cm.
