Brian Paul asked 1 year ago

Can the DTI installation verification test be performed using an impact wrench or is a manual torque wrench required to tension the bolt during the test?

A manual torque wrench is required as the tension approaches 1.05 X the minimum required installation tension and for the rest of the required rotation. An impact wrench may be used to bring the tension to near the above noted tension.
