What Is Torque Measurement?
Torque is a rotating force. In practical terms, it is the turning or twisting force applied by a tool to a fastener, component, or assembly. Torque measurement helps verify that the force indicated by a torque tool matches the force being produced during use.
Torque measurement is used across many industries where bolting, fastening, assembly, and maintenance work must be performed consistently. Calibration helps confirm torque tools are producing reliable readings for their intended application.
Assembly and Production
Torque tools used to apply consistent force in manufacturing and assembly processes.
Maintenance and Repair
Tools used by maintenance teams to tighten, loosen, verify, and document bolting work.
Quality and Safety Programs
Torque documentation can support quality records, tool control, and risk reduction programs.
