Gasket Tools are essential equipment for engine maintenance that all mechanics must have in their workshop. These tools are commonly used to ensure that the critical components in the engine are tightly secured. Gasket torque wrenches are a type of gasket tool used to tighten bolts and nuts to a specific torque. The gasket torque wrenches are designed to prevent over-tightening or under-tightening of the bolts and nuts, which can cause engine failure.
There are two types of gasket torque wrenches: Click-type and Digital torque wrenches. The click-type torque wrench is the traditional type that has been used for many years. It produces an audible 'click' sound when the desired torque level is achieved. The digital torque wrench is a more advanced type that has a digital display that shows the torque level. Some digital torque wrenches are also equipped with a memory function that stores the torque settings.
Gasket Torque Wrenches are essential equipment for anyone working with engines. They ensure that the bolts and nuts are tightened correctly to prevent oil and coolant leaks that may cause engine damage. Over-tightening of bolts or nuts may cause thread stripping, while under-tightening may cause the engine to vibrate or make unusual noises.
1. Find the correct torque specification for the bolts on your engine.
2. Ensure that the gasket torque wrench is set to zero.
3. Attach the correct size socket or attachment to the gasket torque wrench.
4. Tighten the bolts using the gasket torque wrench. The wrench will produce an audible 'click' sound when the desired torque level is achieved.
5. Double-check the torque level with a torque angle gauge or digital angle meter.
Summary
In summary, Gasket Torque Wrenches are essential equipment for engine maintenance. They ensure that the bolts and nuts are tightened to the correct torque level, preventing engine failure. Choosing the right type of torque wrench is crucial to achieving accurate results. Mechanic must follow the correct steps to use the gasket torque wrench.
