A company called Toolden has begun appearing on my radar lately, as among their standard tool offerings sells some very special items. One such is a Click-Torque Lock (part 05075790001) that has a two-in-one function, which is designed to make changing your wheels a little easier.
An innovative device it combines a traditional 1/2in breaker bar along with a 40-200Nm (30-146lb/ft) torque wrench.
The torque setting can be adjusted in 1Nm increments just by altering the rubberised handle. It appeals to me because the clear, black digits on a white background are easier to read than other torque wrenches I have used.
It comes with 17-, 19- and 21mm colour-coded sockets that have rotating sleeves to prevent damage to your kitcar’s prized wheels. You even get inserts that protect your wheelnuts.
There’s even more. It comes with a 125mm extension and a square-shaped collar to keep it safe in its fabric storage case.
When not in use, you can disengage the torque wrench aspect by sliding the top of the handle up, then use it to loosen nuts and bolts. Not cheap at £262.11 but a funky gadget that will appeal to tool collectors.
