Torque wrenches KMSh 140, 1400 - high-quality goods for the assembly and repair of vehicles
Comparing the NIZ KMSh torque wrench with similar pointer type devices, for example, with the MT-1-500, it should be noted that there is an almost fivefold difference in price and the need for additional equipment (special knob) to use the latter.
Torque wrench KMSh-140 is an affordable tool for visual control and checking the tightening torque of threaded connections.
Torque wrench KMSh-140
Owners of domestic cars often independently carry out their repair and maintenance. Operations with assemblies mated with threaded connections require compliance with technological tightening standards. To ensure the installation forces at the seats of bolts and nuts, it is necessary to use special equipment, for example, a KMSh-140 torque wrench. In garage conditions, the operation of simple inexpensive pendulum-type tools fully justifies itself.
Reviews
Characterizing the KMSh-140 NIZ 2774 140 torque wrench, motorists focus on its advantages, not forgetting to note the disadvantages. A budget product has its pros and cons, determined by the characteristics of the application.
Positively characterizing the tool, in the reviews of the KMSh torque wrench, its advantages are noted:
- adequate price-quality ratio, simplicity and reliability of the design;
- verification certificate from the factory and an entry in the state register 22435-07;
- no moving parts (slows down wear and loss of accuracy);
- reading of tightening force from zero to 140 Nm in both directions;
- work with right and left thread without reconfiguring the mechanism;
- the ability to accurately determine the moment of unscrewing.
It is convenient to use the KMSh-140 torque wrench, but, like any product in the budget segment, it has a number of disadvantages:
- a short lever requires serious hand effort to bring the load to exact values at the edges of the range;
- the imperfection of the design prevents the view of the scale in some spatial positions;
- it is necessary to constantly monitor the magnitude of the tightening torque;
- there is no quick head release device;
- when shipped from the factory, the point of the arrow is not always at zero.
Torque wrench KMSh-1400
The tool is intended for industrial use in mechanical engineering, the production of auto and heavy tracked vehicles, as well as for fitter and assembly work in the construction of bridge crossings and arched structures. The pointer indicator of the torque wrench KMSh-1400 of the dial type displays the value of the tightening torque of the thread of the right and left directions with high accuracy. A wide range of normalized tightening forces (600-1400 Nm) with a low (2-5%) error ensures versatility of application.
The torque wrench KMSh-1400 is entered in the state register as a certified measuring instrument under No. 35397-13 with the condition of annual verification. The format of the inner square for the head or adapter is an inch and a quarter (32 mm). The MT-1-1500, which is comparable in terms of the pre-set force, has a large error.
Reviews
The use of the tool showed its reliability and compliance with the declared characteristics when assembling fasteners for large metal structures. It is specifically noted that:
- the price, in comparison with foreign analogues close in terms of measured load, is much lower;
- for a year of work between verifications, the parameters do not drift beyond the permissible limits.
Instructions
The manual attached to the tool contains the main parameters that characterize its operation, among them:
- appointment;
- range of controlled tightening forces;
- error;
- scale division value;
- temperature mode of operation;
- weight of the device.
The KMSh-1400 torque wrench withstands an overload of 10% in excess of the maximum according to the passport without distorting the metrology indicators. The instruction ends with a certificate of acceptance by the quality control department of the enterprise with a verification stamp.
