    I use torque wrenches every day at work, and have been using them even longer in my hobbies at home. I’ve even been to a technical college where we learned our profession in depth, and indeed learned that a spring is compressed to set the desired torque value. Yet, no one could ever satisfactorily explain how the linear spring compression was translated to rotational torque measurement. In 5 minutes, you have solved a decades long mystery for me! Thank you.

      @@richardmillhousenixon Truth. Cycles cause springs to weaken far quicker than steady state loads ever can. Easily proven in real world scenarios. Firearm magazines are a perfect example. They can be stored fully loaded with the spring fully compressed for decades upon decades and the spring will still be as strong as any new magazine. But put a magazine through several hundred cycles of loading and unloading and it will be noticeably weaker even if the magazine is only a few years old. Thousands of cycles and it will start to become too weak.

    If you’ve never used a torque wrench before, it’s useful to understand the “click” is very subtle and easy to miss at low torque settings. It’s a good idea to practice with it to get a feel for how it works at different settings before tightening critical fasteners you don’t want to snap!

    Great video, I used to use these all the time at my old job but didn't know what was going on inside. I will say that I think the risk of damaging the wrench is equal during tightening or loosening. When loosening, you can still set a torque limit and use the click to avoid an over-torque scenario. If you know what the screw was torqued at, you should be able to set the same for loosening (but maybe a little extra due to friction).

      Saying “no not at all” isn’t strictly true. The narrator wasn’t totally wrong. When the block suddenly pivots and the head assembly strikes the inside of the wrench body making the click, that is a small release of energy. It is just a small part of the stored energy, not all of it, but more than zero.

    On the knurled part of the handle, there are usually one or two marking bands for hand placement. This is to get the correct distance from the centre of the socket, the pivot point, out to your hand. It is to ensure you are applying the correct torque as set by the vernier scale.

    Yesterday I used my Torque Wrench and wondered how it actually works. Crazy to get this video suggested now :D

  • @youghurt2k
    @youghurt2k ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Why would it damage the wrench if it is used to loosen bolts?
    It is symmetric in construction, so if a bolt is fastened with 30Nm, the wrench can be set to 40 or 50 for loosening.

    • @martinbakker7615
      @martinbakker7615 ปีที่แล้ว

      Exactly, how would the wrench know it's not fastening a left hand thread? It's the going on after the click that ruins the wrench. In any direction.

    • @brianb-p6586
      @brianb-p6586 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Damage would not be from use in the opposite to usual direction, it would be from use beyond the intended torque capacity. Loosening threaded fasteners often requires far more torque than tightening them.
      To safely loosen with a torque wrench, a method might be to set it to a high torque still within its range, and stop applying force if it clicks.

    Great video! One thing I want to mention, creep is not the right term for why you unload the spring. Creep is a process in metals that needs to happen at over .4 of the materials melting temperature. That springs melting temperature is far higher than operating temps. The material process you are thinking of is metal fatigue. This is what you are trying to avoid by unloading the spring. Great video otherwise!

      Springs don't work like that though. If you're within tolerances you're within tolerances. There've been many tests leaving springs compressed for up to decades.

    • @willjohnson5861
      @willjohnson5861 ปีที่แล้ว

      This an issue with repeated cycles and keeping them under tension. Torque wrenches really will become inaccurate if left loaded, this is a well documented and known fact. You can see this happening in vehicle suspension too. Old coil overs and motorcycle shocks will tend to sag more over time, and that's excluding the loss of suspension fluid. The only source of this behavior I can think of is fatigue, but possibly there is another answer. @@superslash7254

    I really think that aircraft's mechanical flying indicators could make great video subjects,
    The altimeter working with an expansion chamber, and having it's reference set with a simple offset on the needle output
    The variometer using an expansion chamber with a hole, thus the pressure decreases slowly, giving the speed at which the pressure drops
    The artificial horizon, with a graduated sphere, which rotation gets stopped by a mechanical gyroscope (linked to it). The inner workings of flying gages are really impressive in simplicity
