Frequently Asked Questions

Testing a torque wrench involves applying it to a torque calibration device or analyzer to compare its output against a known standard. This helps verify whether the wrench delivers torque within the manufacturer's specified accuracy tolerance.

To check for accuracy, use a calibrated torque tester to apply specific torque settings and verify the output readings. If the torque wrench deviates from acceptable limits, it may need recalibration or servicing to ensure reliable operation.

Torque calibration is crucial because it ensures the tool delivers precise torque values. Inaccurate torque can lead to mechanical failures, safety hazards, or non-compliance with quality standards, especially in industrial, automotive, and aerospace applications.

HK Calibrations offers professional torque wrench calibration services across Australia. We provide both on-site and in-house calibration, traceable to national standards, ensuring your tools meet strict accuracy and compliance requirements.

The cost of torque wrench calibration in Australia usually ranges between $70 and $150 AUD. Prices vary based on the tool type, torque range, and whether additional adjustments or repairs are required during the calibration process.

It’s recommended to calibrate your torque wrench every 12 months or after 5,000 uses, whichever comes first. Heavy usage, harsh environments, or critical applications may require more frequent calibration to maintain accuracy.

Regular calibration ensures your torque wrench delivers accurate torque, preventing under-tightening or over-tightening. This protects equipment, ensures compliance with industry standards, and enhances safety in applications where precision is essential.

Calibrating a torque wrench generally costs $40–$100 USD, depending on its type, capacity, and provider. Precision or large-capacity tools may cost more, especially if additional adjustments or repairs are required.
