Paramount PAR50008 Preset Torque Screwdriver 8 In/lb T7

Product Description

The PARAMOUNT PAR50008 is a preset torque screwdriver designed for precise, repeatable fastening at a fixed torque value of 8 inch-pounds (0.900 Nm). The driver uses a T7 Torx bit and features a straight handle for controlled, single-hand operation. With a drive size of 0.1968 inches, it is suited for small-fastener applications where over-torquing would damage components or under-torquing would compromise retention. Technicians across HVAC, electrical, and electronics service disciplines use preset torque drivers to meet manufacturer torque specifications without a separate torque-measuring tool.

This screwdriver is used in service applications where fasteners must be driven to an exact torque value every time. Preset torque drivers are common on control board enclosures, panel covers, and small-component housings that use T7 Torx fasteners. The fixed 8 in/lb setting eliminates the need to adjust or read a torque scale, making it efficient for repetitive service calls where multiple identical fasteners are driven in sequence.

Key Features

• Preset torque of 8 in/lb (0.900 Nm) — no adjustment needed in the field
• T7 Torx drive for small-fastener compatibility
• 0.1968-inch drive size for precision fit on fine-pitch hardware
• Straight handle design for consistent grip and torque delivery
• Single-piece tool — no loose bits or adapters required

Compatibility

Designed for use with T7 Torx fasteners requiring a fixed torque setting of 8 in/lb. Suitable for small-fastener service work on control boards, panel enclosures, and similar assemblies found in HVAC, electrical, and electronics applications.

Installation Notes

This tool is used by HVAC technicians, electricians, and service professionals for fastener-torquing tasks on low-voltage control components and enclosures. Power down and de-energize any equipment before accessing fastened panels or control board enclosures. Do not apply additional force beyond the preset engagement point, as the driver is calibrated to release at 8 in/lb. Follow equipment manufacturer service documentation for fastener sequence and access procedures.
