    Looking to purchase one of the above. Preferably an electric torque if there's such a thing? One I found on the Web said it only tightened to 0.2nM and then had to be manually tightened after that. Any recommendations? Thanks.

    How Often Do You Have Electrical Torque Screwdrivers Calibrated?

    Not that I've ever used one, but I have been known to mess around with torque wrench's and cylinder heads in my younger days! Torque wrenches do need calibrating because going to tight with an aluminium head after a gasket change can result in expensive mistakes. I guess this could be the...

    Torque Screwdriver Calibration Company?

    Anyone recommend a decent company for torque screwdriver calibration that won't break the bank? Some companies seem to be pretty close to the price of a new one which would start to get expensive over the years.

    Looking for an insulated hex set (perhaps one that fits the draper torque screwdriver!)

    I am having more dealings with western power. In turn, they are now fitting series 8 cut outs and generally an isolator. Both of these have hex key screws.
