Field service and maintenance fastening applications often require a tool that delivers both torque control and the flexibility to easily adjust to different torque values. The Micro Torque screwdriver is an externally adjustable torque tool that offers different setting options for applications that require more than one torque value. The adjustable torque screwdriver features an…
A threaded fastener used for any assembly process requires proper torque control. Without it manufacturing engineers will end up dealing with the unnecessary issues to resolve product failures. Investigating fastening failures in the manufacturing process is costly and time-consuming. Mountz preset screwdrivers use the trusted cam-over technology that eliminates torque failures and are designed and…
As part of the Core Values at Mountz, caring about people is a key element to who we are as people. Julisa Avalos, a Mountz Customer Care team member, recently shared a story about her niece, Fernanda, with the Mountz staff. Her niece is battling a deadly disease called Cystic Fibrosis. Fernanda was diagnosed with…
Throughout the fastening process, a common risk for torque failures is the operator’s influence of operating a torque tool. Often, some types of wrenches are susceptible to torque failures and over torque occurrences. Inadequate tool or process training, as well as an operator’s decision to apply additional force are common symptoms for quality control failures.…
For companies that manufacture at a low volume production level, often hand torque tools are adequate to meet their fastening requirements. But when production demands increase, a new dilemma is born. Is it time to switch tooling from hand tools to power assembly tools? Selecting the proper electric screwdriver for a fastening application can be…
Designed to prevent fastening failures, Mountz cam-over torque wrenches provide reliable and precise torque control for bolting applications that do not tolerate over-torque conditions. Improper torque control increases manufacturing costs and delays. As a quality control tool, the cam-over wrench allows any user to deliver the correct torque with confidence regardless of task and operator…
A preset break-over torque wrench limits the amount torque applied to a fastener and improves the control of the bolting process by reducing the risk of both over and under tightening. Upon reaching the preset torque value, the tool “breaks” at a specific point along the tool’s shaft – usually at a pivot point near…
Calibrating a hand or power torque tool is a process that manufacturers need to make sure takes place on a consistent basis. Regular tool calibration ensures repeatable accuracy and adherence to international standards. A torque tool is a precision device and should be treated and maintained like an instrument. A tool must be properly calibrated…
