About Torque Tools

Air-Powered Screwdrivers
Connect these tools to your shop air to install and remove fasteners.
Screwdrivers with positive clutch drive are the best choice for fastening applications where torque control is not critical. These tools require the operator to pull the trigger and apply pressure to the screw before the bit will turn. The clutch slips as soon as pressure is lifted or the maximum torque of the tool is reached.
Screwdrivers with direct drive start turning the bit as soon as the operator pulls the trigger. These tools provide a high level of control over fastening but do not have any built-in mechanism for preventing overtightening or limiting torque. Since pressure is not required for the screwdriver to turn the bit, they're good for fastening through compressible materials.
Note: Air tools require lubrication to operate properly.

Torque-Limiting Air-Powered Wrenches
Set torque and the wrench will prevent you from exceeding it. Also known as nutrunners, these tools are commonly used in assembly applications. They have a pin-style (also called positive locking) socket retainer that fits into a matching hole in the socket and provides a secure hold. Wrenches operate at full torque in both clockwise and counterclockwise direction. Use with impact sockets only. Air-powered tools require lubrication to operate properly.

Sealed-Head Air-Powered Ratchet Wrenches
Built to last, these wrenches have an enclosed steel head that seals lubrication in and dirt, dust, and moisture out to protect the ratchet mechanism. Since they’re air powered, these wrenches turn fasteners more quickly than handheld wrenches. They have a ball-detent-style socket retainer for quick socket changes—pull the socket off the retainer and push on another one. Wrenches operate at full torque in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. Air-powered tools require lubrication to operate properly.
