Vlier’s line of precisely engineered mechanical components includes our adjustable torque handles, which control forward force on assemblies, machinery and other equipment where ordinary torque thumb screws would require considerable machining or customizing. These components provide secure tightening that controls forward force and eliminates rattling.
Typical Uses
Manufacturing assemblies and for workholding applications.
Options
Available with 5/16”, 3/8” and 1/2” tapped holes
Models TH103A to TH106 include die-cast aluminum handles
Models TH225 to TH227 are steel with black oxide finish and knurled knob
Special Features
Adjustable torque
Variable holding force with hex head adjustment
Holds fragile and heavy materials
Controlled end pressure
Checknuts prevent back-off
Head ratchets freely at preset pressure
