Ken-Tool 1/2" Drive Metric Torque Stick Socket (Ea.)
Part No: KEN-30216
The Ken-Tool Torque Master Metric Torque Stick is a professional-grade torque-limiting socket engineered to deliver consistent, repeatable torque when used with an impact wrench. By bleeding off excess torque, it reduces the risk of over-torquing wheel fasteners, a critical factor in maintaining vehicle safety and reducing liability in tire service operations.
Each socket variant features a fixed torque rating, color-coded identification, and precision-engineered construction for long service life under continuous shop use. This tool is designed strictly for controlled tightening applications and should always be paired with a calibrated torque wrench for final verification when required by service standards.
Why Choose Ken-Tool Torque Master?
Unlike standard impact sockets that apply uncontrolled torque, Ken-Tool Torque Master sockets regulate output to prevent wheel damage and ensure consistent, safe tightening. This makes them essential for modern tire shops aiming to improve workflow efficiency while maintaining compliance with torque safety standards.
When paired with proper procedures, these torque sticks reduce comebacks, wheel failures, and technician fatigue, increasing both productivity and professionalism on the shop floor.
