Discuss Any recommendations for a good quality Torque Screw driver set please? in the Electrical Tools and Products area at ElectriciansForums.net
Was just looking at a set of those - thanks. Is it possible to adjust the Torque settings or are they set to a unified standard, with all manufactures being set to the same setting?I'm a fan of the Wiha. If you can try a few different ones out before buying to see what suits you best.
Very easy to adjust providing you remember to push the torque setting driver (one with the black handle) in fully and make sure you only use it with the big red bit installed - I didn't first time I used it and nearly sent them back until I realised my mistake....Was just looking at a set of those - thanks.

I went for the following set (appeared to be best value at the time), but to be honestly only real use the PZ/SL bit for torqueing up inside the CU.

Wera on order - thank you all.I have a Wera. Comes in a nice roll to hold multiple blades and very easy to adjust. I'm not a spark, so it's not used regularly, but qualtiy seems to be top notch.
Think there are a few variations of this driver, with different torque ranges, so you'd need to choose the one most suited for your work. I think the one I have is adjustable from 1.5-3.2Nm.
Wera do two versions, one which I have is 1.5-3.0 Nm , the other is 1-7-3.5 Nm.
I looked at mine, it’s actually 1.2Nm to 3.0NmCouldn't remember the exact torque range, but I must have the same driver as it drops a few clicks below 1.7Nm.
I believe there are three different options.

I have a lovely Ameg set, used less times than my old fella, and if you'd seen my face you'd know how few times that is...As above
Thanks

love Wera, best screwdrivers out there in my opinionHad to go and check as this was niggling me and it is indeed 1.2-3.0Nm.
I got this set as an Amazon warehouse deal - as new for about £15 more than the driver on its own. Went with Wera as I had a couple of handles and all the blades I needed, so ended up with doubles of most. The torque driver has only been used for one job (wanted to ensure I hadn't squashed conductors to within an inch of their existence), but can not fault the simplicity or quality of it. The regular handles get used a lot and, again, I can not fault them - blades locate as solidly as the day they were new. I guess the only issue with Wera is whether or not people find the handles comfortable, but they suit me just fine.
Do most sporks actually use a torque screwdriver , I honestly can’t say I have ever seen one used on site ...
