Voici un bon video pour faire comprendre l'importance d'un torque wrench.

Heille! Les annonces de Torque Wrench c'est mon territoire!!!:run:

Blague à part, je l'avais déjà flagué dans le thread "Heille s'tu moé..." Mais tu as raison, c'est dans cette section-ci que ça va.

Je suis content de voir qu'il n'y a pas que moi qui fait une psychose sur les Torque Wrench de CT....:D
 
Pour info.... torque wrench encore en vente cette semaine chez CDN Tire...

Gants mechanix en vente aussi chez CDN Tire... bons petits gants de pilotage légers et pas chers....
 
The Canadian Tire toy has about 82ft.lbs of torque. Not enough to remove lug nuts, yet quite practical after the nuts have been cracked with a torque wrench.

Look at Harbour Freight's site. They have impact guns for half-of-half-of Canadian Tire (that's 25% the price) with lots more torque.

Harbor Freight Tools

140ft.lbs torque - 18 volts - $39.99

220ft.lbs torque - 19.2 volts - $79.00

Good price. Cheaper than buying an air compressor and air gun.

Not really, I got my 15ga air compressor with a shit ton of air tools(chisel, impact, ratchet, blow gun, paint gun, etc.) for under $400 tax-in at CTire.

At 15 gallons, there's not much reserve. Basically you need a 60 gallon tank with twin steel heads and strap drive. That's a minimum of $700cdn. Plus a quality zip gun that gets you 600ft.lbs torque.

Woah good price! Do you know the shipping price?
 
Thanks for the heads up Trong and Lee.

I have agree that the Harbour freight ones look interesting, but the CTC ones actually do the job. Pascal and Vince have them and they remove torqued wheel nuts all the time.
CT products are readily available and have a nice warrantee

Either way, these are good tools to have.

This thread will be moved to the topic already started in FS.
