Abstract: A torque wrench is provided in which a removably attached alarm indicator produces an audible buzzing or visual indication when a pre-selected torque is applied by the torque wrench. In a preferred embodiment, an audible buzzer has a magnet in its base to facilitate removable attachment to a faceplate on the wrench, and also to make possible the use of the same audible buzzer on other torque wrenches. The audible buzzer may include an electrical circuit having a switch, battery, and buzzer all connected in series.
