Needle Torque Wrench, 1/2-Inch Drive, 0–300 Nm, Reversible

Brief Overview

This 1/2-inch drive needle torque wrench delivers precise torque control across a 0–300 Nm range, making it an essential tool for wheel assembly, engine work, and critical fastening applications. The reversible design and chrome-plated steel construction provide durability and reliability in high-volume shop environments. Whether you're managing light-duty precision work or heavy automotive assembly, this wrench covers the mid-range torque spectrum—and pairs effectively with lower-range precision torque tools for fine adjustments or heavy-duty industrial torque applications when maximum torque is required.

Key Features

• 1/2-Inch Square Drive: Universal compatibility with standard socket attachments
• 0–300 Nm Range: Covers automotive wheel torque, engine fasteners, and general industrial assembly
• Reversible Design: Left and right directional torque application for tightening and loosening
• Needle Pointer Scale: Clear, easy-to-read blue calibration plate with white graduations; 10 Nm increment divisions for precise setting
• Chrome-Plated Steel Shaft: Corrosion-resistant finish extends tool lifespan in workshop and field conditions
• Ergonomic Black Molded Grip: Contoured finger grooves and molded handle reduce fatigue during extended use
• Click Mechanism: Audible feedback when target torque is reached
• Portable Design: Compact length and lanyard hole enable convenient storage and transport

Why Resellers Choose This Tool

High-Volume Demand: Wheel assembly and engine maintenance are core shop activities. A single 0–300 Nm wrench eliminates the need for multiple mid-range tools, reducing inventory complexity and stock-keeping unit (SKU) burden.

Margin-Friendly Positioning: Mid-range torque wrenches sit at an attractive price point—higher margin than budget tools, lower cost than specialized heavy-duty models. Ideal for upselling to customers upgrading from basic hand tools.

Durability = Repeat Revenue: Chrome-plated steel and reversible mechanism mean minimal warranty claims. Long service life builds customer loyalty and reduces return rates.

Cross-Sell Opportunity: Shops often need multiple torque ranges. Stocking this alongside precision models (5–25 Nm) and heavy-duty options (300+ Nm) maximizes per-customer transaction value.

Professional Credibility: Needle torque wrenches are industry-standard for critical fastening. Offering this tool signals your shop carries professional-grade equipment, justifying premium pricing.
