TBX-12 Stop Collar
TBX-12 model supplied with a removable stop collar, which restricts the "break" angle to 20º. If the
collar is removed, the "break" angle increases to 90º.
Maintenance Schedule
Like an automobile, torque wrenches contain moving parts that require periodic servicing and
lubrication.
Period Between Resetting of Torque
20,000 fastening operations. It is acknowledged that some tools may achieve 20,000 operations in a relatively short period of
time. Under these circumstances, the user may decide, with the benefit of their experience, to increase the period between
calibration intervals.
Routine Maintenance
After 60,000 operations, strip, clean, and re-grease the spring and internal components. Any worn parts should be replaced.
Note: Any tool that is dismantled during its life must be re-lubricated in accordance with the Mountz recommendations. Do not
clean tools by immersing them in a solvent, as this will destroy the internal lubrication and cause the tool's failure.
Testing and Servicing
Torque tools go out of calibration with use. Calibrating a torque tool is a fine-tuning process of bringing the tool back within its
tolerance. Regular torque calibration of a break-over wrench ensures accuracy, repeatable tool performance, and adherence
to international standards.
We recommend a general once a year calibration interval. However, the user's organization must determine suitable intervals
based upon equipment performance, application, degree of usage, and management objectives.
