TOOLS New wrench for torque and angle


Stahwille, a German hand tool specialist based in Wuppertal, says that its new Manoskop 714 unites the advantages of its electromechanical torque wrenches, and the accuracy of its angle-controlled tools, with the convenience of a user-friendly software solution for configuring the tool and managing users.

oth in the clicking and indicating modes of the new Manoskop 714 – with optional display of the peak hold reading – the tightening method for each joint can be selected from a combination of torque and/or angle-controlled measurement. For each operating mode, the user can choose between four possible measuring methods (torque, angle, torque/angle, angle/torque).


The tool is configured using the convenient Sensomaster software program. Almost 200 joints can be programmed


in up to 25 pre-set sequences. For each joint, it is possible to store up to 2,500 measurements. User specific access levels enable many different application scenarios. Data interchange with a PC is via a standard USB port. The joint readings are displayed on the high-resolution, backlit display and can be immediately assessed and


evaluated. When the predefined advance warning threshold is reached, the display changes to yellow. Green means that the tool has triggered within the defined tolerance range and this is also signalled to the user by means of a tactile and/or acoustic signal. This minimises the risk of over torqueing the defined limit (signalled by red). LEDs on either side of the tool provide easily seen information irrespective of how the tool is being held, even if the display is not in the direct line of vision. This functionality also prevents the tool being overloaded. The new torque/angle-controlled Manoskop 714 will be available from September 2012 in seven sizes, initially for the measuring range from 1Nm to 400Nm.

New patented rivet nut hand tool


Make Ends Meet has recently re-launched its patented Rivet Nut Hand Tool, the RNHT48 (M4 to M8) and RNHT410 (M4 to M10). Now even stronger, it installs M4 up to M10 open end rivet nuts and rivet studs in all materials.

there are spares included in the case. Make Ends Meet points out that in addition to the many


benefits this tool has compared with conventional hand pliers, lever and ratchet type tools, the spin action ensures total control over installation, especially important in more brittle materials including fibreglass and GRP. Conversion kits are also available to enable change from

metric to UNC/UNF rivet nuts (and vice versa) and from rivet nuts to rivet studs. Conversion kits come in dedicated robust plastic cases with foam cut outs for individual components – simply remove the outer body, exchange the unified cassette for the metric and replace the body. “Since re-launch in December, over 500 tools have been sold


purely on the company’s retail website in the UK and overseas. Distributors have already been appointed in some export markets but the company is seeking further representation in some EEC countries and markets further afield and would welcome contact from interested distribution companies. Prices are competitive and the tool will literally last a lifetime, such is the quality that has been designed and built into the tool.”
