    • Use the following formula to calculate the reading of a torque wrench.

    Calculation formula

    T = 24 N.m (2.4 kgf-m, 17.7ft-lb) x L1/(L1+L2)

    T: Reading of the torque wrench

    L1: Effective length of the torque wrench

    L2: Effective length of the crowfoot wrench

    NOTE: If the effective length of the tool used is unknown, consult the manufacturer of the tool.
