Torque Wrench
A torque wrench is a calibrated tool used to tighten wheel nuts or bolts to the manufacturer's specified torque setting. Correct torque is critical — under-tightened nuts risk wheel detachment, while over-tightened nuts can warp brake discs or strip threads. Torque wrenches must be regularly calibrated and their use recorded for compliance purposes.
