Norbar NorTorque® 100 Adjustable Dual Scale Ratchet Torque Wrench 1/2in Drive 20-100Nm

The Norbar NorTorque® 100 is an adjustable dual scale ratchet torque wrench built on Norbar's proven mechanism and internal components, offering professional-grade accuracy in a purposeful, value-for-money package. With a 1/2in square drive and a working range of 20-100Nm (15-75 lb.ft), it suits general mechanical and automotive fastening tasks across a wider torque range than the smaller NorTorque models. Accurate to ±3%, meeting the requirements of ISO 6789-1:2017, and supplied with a Declaration of Conformance. Part of the full Norbar range at MTN Shop UK.

A push-through ratchet with 72 teeth allows operation in both clockwise and counter-clockwise directions, while a narrow engagement angle lets the wrench be positioned easily in confined spaces. The secure push/pull locking mechanism is quick and intuitive to use, preventing accidental adjustment once the torque is set, and a micrometer scale on the robust single-material handle makes setting fast and error-free. A convenient hanger feature aids storage as well as wrench unlocking and adjustment, and the handle centre is clearly marked for calibration reference.

Frequently Asked Questions

What torque wrench do I need for wheel nuts and general car servicing?
For most passenger car and van servicing, including wheel nuts, suspension components, and engine mounts, a 1/2in drive torque wrench covering roughly 20-100Nm is the standard choice. The Norbar NorTorque 100 falls squarely in this range, making it a common pick for home mechanics and light commercial workshops. Always check your vehicle's manual or fastener spec sheet for the exact torque value before tightening.
How do I set a torque wrench to a specific Nm value?
On the Norbar NorTorque 100, rotate the handle to align your target value on the dual Nm/lb.ft scale, then use the push/pull locking collar to lock the setting in place so it doesn't shift during use. Tighten the fastener steadily until you feel and hear a distinct click, which signals the set torque has been reached; stop applying force at that point rather than continuing to turn.
How often should a torque wrench be calibrated?
Most manufacturers, including Norbar, recommend calibration checks roughly once a year or after a set number of uses, whichever comes first, since mechanical torque wrenches can drift out of tolerance with heavy use or being dropped. The NorTorque 100 is supplied with a Declaration of Conformance confirming its accuracy at the time of manufacture, and Norbar offers ongoing calibration services.
Can a torque wrench be used to loosen bolts, or only to tighten them?
Standard click-type torque wrenches, including the NorTorque 100, are designed for tightening to a set torque value, not for loosening. However, the NorTorque 100's push-through ratchet allows the direction to be switched between clockwise and counter-clockwise, so the same tool can be used to loosen fasteners as an ordinary ratchet, just without torque measurement applying to the loosening direction.
What's the difference between 1/2in and 3/8in drive torque wrenches?
Drive size refers to the square fitting that connects the wrench to sockets, and it generally correlates with the torque range the wrench can handle. 3/8in drive wrenches, such as the Norbar NorTorque 60, typically cover lower torque ranges around 12-60Nm, suited to smaller fasteners, while 1/2in drive wrenches like the NorTorque 100 cover a broader mid-range up to around 100Nm or more, making them the more common choice for general automotive work.
