The Ascot Supply2-pc 600 ft-lb Flex Hinge Style Torque Wrench, No. 168-60012 is ideal for use with commercial truck tires and wheels. It helps ensure wheel nuts are properly torqued to prevent wheel-offs. Its design prevents over-torquing, and the wrench literally won’t allow wheel nuts to be torqued more than 600 ft/lbs. The wrench flexes at the hinge when the proper torque is reached.
