Calculate Torque Wrench Extension





Formula

The formula to calculate the Torque Setting (T1) of an extended wrench is:

\[ T_1 = T_2 \cdot \left(\frac{L_1}{L_2}\right) \]

What is a Torque Wrench Extension?

A torque wrench extension is defined as a wrench that has been extended past its normal length to achieve greater torques. This extension allows for more leverage, making it easier to apply higher torque values.

Example Calculation

Consider an example where:

Using the formula to calculate the Torque Setting:

\[ T_1 = 50 \cdot \left(\frac{30}{45}\right) = 33.33 \text{ Nm} \]

This means that the torque setting for this example is approximately 33.33 Nm.
