Guide: Choosing Between Preset and Adjustable Torque Screwdrivers

In the world of torque screwdrivers, there are two main categories: "Preset" and "Adjustable." The choice between them depends on your specific needs and objectives.

Preset torque screwdrivers provide tamper-proof operation, making them ideal for scenarios where a fixed torque setting is required. They work like setting an alarm clock; pre-set to the required torque value, they signal the operator once the torque is achieved. These screwdrivers do not feature an external adjustment scale and must be preset using a torque tester. This makes them perfect for production applications where it is essential to prevent tampering with the torque setting. However, if the torque specification changes or a new project requires a different torque setting, the preset torque screwdriver is still flexible enough that a new torque setting can be set internally using a torque analyzer.

On the other hand, adjustable torque screwdrivers offer versatility for applications that require different torque settings. They feature an external adjustment scale, allowing operators to adjust the torque setting as needed. A quality adjustable screwdriver typically features a ring or bezel device that allows an operator to press down to adjust the torque setting and then locks into place once released preventing incidental torque adjustment. These screwdrivers are ideal for field service or production scenarios where flexibility is key.
