Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I calibrate my Wera torque wrench?
For professional use, it's recommended to have your Wera torque wrench calibrated annually or after approximately 5,000 cycles, whichever comes first. If you drop your torque wrench or notice inconsistent operation, immediate recalibration is advisable.
What torque range do I need for automotive work?
For general automotive applications, a 1/2" drive torque wrench covering 40-200 Nm is ideal for most tasks including wheel nuts, suspension components, and engine work. Consider a smaller 3/8" drive model (10-100 Nm) for more delicate components.
Should I store my Wera torque wrench at its lowest setting?
Yes, always return your Wera torque wrench to its lowest torque setting after use. This releases tension on the internal spring mechanism, maintaining accuracy and extending the tool's calibrated lifespan.
