The Torque Multiplier is a mechanical tool used to amplify torque applied to fasteners, often in situations where using conventional torque wrenches would be impractical or insufficient. It operates by using a gear reduction, allowing the user to apply a lower input force that is multiplied into a much larger output torque. Torque multipliers are used in equipment maintenance and assembly, where bolts and nuts are subject to high torque specifications that cannot be achieved manually. The primary function of a torque multiplier is to amplify the input torque, making it easier to apply the high torque required for securing or removing fasteners in applications. It is especially useful when space is limited, or the required torque exceeds the capacity of standard tools.

Attributes:
• For use with a 1/2 inch square drive torque wrench.
• Used to apply torques above the capability of torque wrenches with an accuracy of ±5%
• Features a directional clutch that holds the windup and provides ratcheting action.
• Usable in close quarters where the movement of the input wrench is limited.
• Provides 360° continuous rotation in both directions.
• Compatible with 1/2-inch square input and 1-inch square output drives.

Applications:
The Torque Multiplier is used in equipment for tightening or loosening large bolts and nuts, such as in wheel assembly, frame joints, hydraulic system connections, engine mounts, and transmission housing. They are especially required where high torque is required for fasteners.
