MountzPro® Wins Industry Innovation Award
Online, January 2, 2014 (Newswire.com) - The best and brightest new products in the tool industry have been announced, and MountzPro® is among the winners. "Certain manufacturers go the extra mile to add useful and often game-changing innovations to their product offerings," said Clint DeBoer, Executive Director of the Pro Tool Innovation Awards. "These winners deserve a coveted spot in the toolbox of any tradesman, contractor or DIYer." MountzPro was awarded the innovation award for its new True Dual Scale Torque Wrench.
The patented MountzPro click wrench is unlike other torque wrenches that feature two scales. Whether it is a window based scale or body scale torque wrench, other manufacturers may state their wrench is a dual scale tool, however these torque tools are not a "True Dual Scale Wrench." All other torque wrenches with two scales are not usable in the both scales. Due to the design of other "dual scale wrenches," these tools can only be calibrated in one unit of measurement, the primary-scale. The other unit of measurement is only for reference. Trying to set a torque wrench in a unit of measurement that is not the primary scale can be difficult and not accurate.
A panel of judges representing tool professionals from across the United States weighed in on entries from top global manufacturers, and MountzPro was selected as a recipient of this honor. Here's what the judges had to say about MountzPro:
"If you care about accuracy and want a torque wrench that is certified in both metric and SAE scales, then MountzPro's unique True Dual Scale Torque Wrench is a great product."
The tool not only has two scales of measurement, it is also calibrated in both scales. The wrench is designed with a patented torque adjustment system that gives the tool the ability to be accurately set in either scale easily and independently.
With the MountzPro torque Wrench, there is no fumbling around to adjust the torque setting between two different scales. There is no math needed to calculate and convert the torque setting between two metric and imperial systems. The operator gets the correct torque setting every time, because the tool is calibrated for both scales.
The durable MountzPro wrench is built with a strong steel shaft with a high corrosion resistance. The automotive torque wrench also features a bi-directional ratchet head with a push button socket release. The adjustable click wrench features a "Positive Torque Locking Knob", which securely locks the preset torque and prevents accidental adjustment of the torque setting.
Designed and manufactured to meet or exceed the accuracy and repeatability requirements of ISO6789: 2003, MountzPro offers various torque wrench models covering a torque range from 15 up to 1,000 foot-pounds. The tool is supplied with a certificate of calibration. Certified in both scales.
An operator can quickly and easily adjust torque settings. The MountzPro wrench offers an easy-to-read dual scale (American & S.I.) that's protected by a display window. The graduation collar is located on the torque handle. The handle is shaped to provide a firm, ergonomic grip.
Using a quality torque wrench makes a safer world through accuracy and precision. Controlling torque is essential for companies to ensure their product's quality, safety and reliability isn't compromised. The failure of a three-cent fastener that isn't properly tightened can lead to catastrophic or latent failures. Fasteners that are insufficiently fastened can vibrate loose and excessive torque can strip threaded fasteners.
