Protect your wheels, wheel studs, and brake rotors with STEELMAN torque extensions. The STEELMAN 50061-5XA 5-Piece 1/2-Inch Drive Torque Extension Set is designed to prevent damage to wheels, studs, and brake rotors by reducing the risk of over-tightening lug nuts which can result in sheared stud bolts, rounded lug nuts, and warped rotors. When used with an electric or pneumatic impact wrench these 8-inch extension bars will limit the effective output of the wrench to a preset amount of torque and anything above that will cause the extension to flex and absorb the extra impact. Each torque stick is machined to a specific maximum torque and then color coded for easy identification: yellow at 65ft-lb, blue at 80ft-lb, gray at 100ft-lb, white at 120ft-lb, and aqua at 140ft-lb of torque. These torque sticks are made of resilient chrome molybdenum (chromoly) steel that are then given their color-coded powder coating for increased corrosion resistance and to make it easy to distinguish them among other tools. Kit includes a convenient blow-molded black storage case.
8-INCH EXTENSION - Torque extensions are 8-inches long to allow easy clearance and prevent damage to wheels by a too close impact wrench
5-PIECE SET - 5-Piece set includes a yellow 65ft-lb, blue 80ft-lb, gray 100ft-lb, white 120ft-lb, and aqua 140ft-lb torque sticks
RESILIENT STEEL - Made of durable and resilient chrome molybdenum steel
PREVENT OVER-TIGHTENING - Prevent over-tightening that can lead to premature failure of wheels, wheel studs, and rotors
POWDER COATED - Powder coated for additional corrosion resistance and to easily identify it among other extensions and tools
FLEXES TO LIMIT TORQUE - When each sticks maximum torque is reached the extension will flex and absorb additional impacts instead of continuing to tighten
1/2-INCH DRIVE - Both male and female ends are 1/2-inch drive for use with heavy duty impact wrenches and sockets
CALIBRATION FREE - With a pre-determined maximum allowed torque and no moving parts they are maintenance and recalibration free
