Protect your wheels, wheel studs, and brake rotors with Steelman torque extensions. The Steelman 50061-5XA 5-Piece 1/2 in. Drive Torque Extension Set is designed to prevent damage to wheels, studs, and brake rotors by reducing the risk of overtightening lug nuts which can result in sheared stud bolts, rounded lug nuts, and warped rotors. When used with an impact wrench these 8 in. extension bars will limit the effective output of the wrench to a preset amount of torque and anything above that will cause the extension will flex and absorb the extra impact. Each torque stick is machined to a specific maximum torque and then color coded for easy identification: yellow at 65 ft./lbs. blue at 80 ft./lbs. gray at 100 ft./lbs. white at 120 ft./lbs. and aqua at 140 ft./lbs. of torque. These torque sticks are made of resilient chrome molybdenum (Chromoly) steel that are then given their color-coded powder coating for increased corrosion resistance and to make it easy to distinguish them among other tools. Kit includes a convenient blow-molded black storage case.
- 8 in. extension – torque extension is 8 in. to allow easy clearance and prevent damage to wheels by a too close impact wrench
- 5-piece set – 5-piece set includes a yellow 65 ft./lbs. blue 80 ft./lbs. gray 100 ft./lbs., white 120 ft./lbs., and aqua 140 ft./lbs. torque sticks
- Resilient steel – made of durable and resilient chrome molybdenum steel
- Prevent over-tightening – prevent over-tightening that can lead to premature failure of wheels, wheel studs, and rotors
- Powder coated – powder coated for additional corrosion resistance and to easily identify it among other extensions and tools
- Flexes to limit torque – when each sticks maximum torque is reached the extension will flex and absorb additional impacts instead of continuing to tighten
- 1/2 in. drive – both male and female ends are 1/2 in. drive for use with heavy-duty impact wrenches and sockets
- Calibration free – with a pre-determined maximum allowed torque and no moving parts it is maintenance and calibration free
