What is Torque?
According to Webster:
A twisting or wrenching effect, or moment, exerted by a
force acting at a distance on a body, equal to the force
multiplied by the perpendicular distance between the line
of action of the force, and the center of rotation at which it
is exerted.
A force, which tends to produce rotation. The
measurement of torque is based on the fundamental law
of the lever.
Torque Formula: L x F = T

All mechanical torque wrenches are calibrated from 20% to 100% of full scale, therefore, they
should never be used below or above those limits
To determine which torque wrench capacity is best suited for an application, many factors must
be considered. However, as a recommendation, use a torque wrench in the middle 50% of the
overall capacity of the tool. This will result in longer tool life, ease of use for the operator and
increased accuracy from "clicker" type torque wrenches
Always grasp handle firmly in the center of the grip
Approach final torque slowly and evenly
Stop pulling wrench immediately when target torque is reached
Never use a torque wrench to break fasteners loose
Should be cleaned and stored properly
Should always be stored at its lowest torque setting
Wrenches should be re-calibrated if dropped. Should never be used in excess of its capacity
Torque wrenches should be "exercised" a minimum of three times at 100% of full scale before
use
The wrench selected should be calibrated in the same torque units that are specified
Use of a "cheater bar" will result in an inaccurate reading and can possibly damage the wrench
Torque wrenches will last longer if reasonable care is taken. Always unwind handle to the
lowest setting after each use. Do not attempt to lubricate the internal torque mechanism.
Clean torque wrench by wiping, do not immerse. The wrench should be sent to a qualified
calibration lab once every year or every 5000 cycles for re-calibration

Result:
Furthermore, transducers which are used to convert the mechanical torque into
an electrical signal may become inconsistent below 10% of full-scale deflection.
It is for the above stated reason that systems which have accuracy as related to
indicated value should state the useful range to be 10% to 100% of the tester
range.
Therefore, if a tester has 100 ft. lb. maximum range, it should not be used at
less than 10 ft. lbs. if the desired accuracy is needed.
It is CDIs belief that in order to be completely honest to the customer, accuracy
should always be stated as a percent of indicated value and the useful range
should correspond to that stated accuracy. This will prevent the user from having
to calculate what the
real error is at any given range.

3 Circuitry: There are two basic ways of measuring the output of a torque
transducer.
At 100 ft. lb. +/- 0.5% full scale error = .5 ft, lb. This
represents the best case error of the system.
However, when a lower range is utilized, this .5 ft-lb
becomes more significant. That is, on the same 100 ft.
lb. tester;
Basically, full digital systems are computer controlled. It is important that the
terms digital display or digital memory do not necessarily mean that the
system has full digital circuitry.
