  • Publication number: 20260138248
    Abstract: An electronic torque wrench having a heat-treated hardened steel alloy spacer in a narrowed area of the wrench head. One end of the spacer is secured to one side of the narrowed area of the wrench head. A gap is provided between a free end of the spacer and an opposite side of the narrowed area. During operation of the tool within its rating, the gap remains open. However, when the rated torque is exceeded, the tool will begin to bend, closing the gap and causing the free end of the spacer to contact the adjacent face of the wrench head. The force of any additional torque applied is borne, at least in part, by the hardened torque-limiting spacer rather than by the wrench head.
