Paramount PAR50010 Preset Torque Screwdriver T8

Product Description

The PARAMOUNT PAR50010 is a preset torque screwdriver designed for controlled, repeatable fastening where over-torquing would damage components or under-torquing would compromise assembly integrity. The driver is set to a fixed torque range of 169.6 to 170 inch-ounces (1.2 Newton-meters), making it suitable for precision assembly and service tasks. It features a T8 Torx drive with a 0.1968-inch drive size and a straight handle profile. Technicians working on small electronics, HVAC control boards, pool equipment panels, or low-voltage device enclosures will find this tool useful when manufacturer torque specifications must be met consistently.

This preset torque screwdriver is suited for light-duty precision fastening in residential and light commercial service environments. It is commonly used by HVAC technicians, pool equipment installers, and electronics service professionals when assembling or servicing equipment with small Torx fasteners that require controlled torque application. The single-piece construction and straight handle make it easy to deploy in confined panel spaces.

Key Features

Compatibility

Designed for use with T8 Torx fasteners in precision assembly and service applications requiring controlled torque output. Consult equipment manufacturer documentation to confirm T8 Torx fastener fitment before use.

Installation Notes

Power down and de-energize any electrical equipment before accessing fasteners on control boards or panel enclosures. This is a hand tool requiring no power source; apply steady, even pressure along the axis of the fastener to avoid cam-out. Do not attempt to modify or override the preset torque mechanism. Follow applicable equipment manufacturer service procedures when torque specifications are provided.
