Within Workshop Tools, Torque covers the workshop tools used to apply, measure, and verify torque values when tightening fasteners — torque wrenches, torque screwdrivers, torque multipliers, and the calibration and adjustment accessories used alongside them. Correct torque is critical to fastener integrity in automotive, plant, agricultural, and engineering assemblies — under-torqued fasteners loosen and fail; over-torqued fasteners stretch, distort, or strip threads.
Within Torque you will find Torque Wrenches (the largest sub-category — covering click-type, dial-type, and digital torque wrenches across the workshop range from 1/4-inch drive small-fastener wrenches up to 3/4-inch and 1-inch drive heavy-duty units), Torque Screwdrivers (for low-torque precision applications — circuit boards, instrument assembly, small mechanical work), Torque Multipliers (geared multipliers that amplify operator input torque for very-high-torque work — wheel nuts on commercial vehicles, foundation bolts), and Torque Calibration accessories. Parts For Machines supplies trade-grade torque tools for automotive, agricultural, plant, and engineering workshop use.
Parts For Machines is an Authorised Distributor and Seller of SIP, Sealey, and Draper across torque tools — Sealey covers the broadest range of click-type and digital torque wrenches across all common drive sizes, with Sealey's Premier range covering professional-spec wrenches with calibration certification; SIP and Draper extend the range at trade pricing. Product pages list the torque range (in Newton-metres, foot-pounds, and inch-pounds — the wrench operates accurately within its rated minimum-to-maximum range), drive size (1/4-inch, 3/8-inch, 1/2-inch, 3/4-inch, 1-inch), accuracy class (typically ±4% of reading for trade-grade, ±3% for professional-spec), length (longer wrenches give better operator control on high-torque work), and where applicable the calibration certificate availability. For workshop use, choose a torque wrench with a range that covers the typical fasteners you tighten — most workshops need a small-range 1/4 or 3/8-inch drive wrench (5-25 Nm) for engine and accessory work and a 1/2-inch drive wrench (40-200 Nm) for chassis and suspension work.
For wheel-nut work on cars and vans, 60-130 Nm is typical; for HGVs and plant, 300-700 Nm wrenches or torque multipliers are needed. Trade pricing on multi-tool orders is available; contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583.
