Williams Comfort Products QYX48A Torque Wrench Head 1.5 in

Product Description

The WILLIAMS COMFORT PRODUCTS QYX48A is a torque wrench head designed for high-load fastening applications where precise torque delivery is required. This head features a 15-degree offset box end configuration with a 12-point design, allowing access in tight spaces while maintaining firm engagement on fasteners. The opening size is 1.5 inches, and the shank measures 0.560 inches with a Y-type shank interface for compatibility with corresponding torque wrench handles. Maximum rated torque is 160 ft-lb, making it suitable for heavy-duty mechanical work in HVAC, plumbing, and industrial service environments. Licensed technicians and journeymen mechanics reach for this type of head when standard sockets cannot fit the access angle.

This torque wrench head is used in residential and commercial mechanical service work where large-diameter fasteners must be tightened to a specific torque value. The 15-degree offset angle provides clearance in confined installation areas, such as around pipe flanges, equipment mounts, and structural fastener applications. The SAE sizing makes it applicable to standard inch-measurement fasteners common in domestic HVAC and plumbing equipment. It is sold as a single head unit and is used by HVAC technicians, plumbers, pipefitters, and general mechanical tradespeople.

Installation Notes

This torque wrench head is installed by mechanical tradespeople including HVAC technicians, plumbers, and pipefitters. Before use, verify the torque wrench handle is rated to meet or exceed the 160 ft-lb maximum torque of this head. Ensure the shank is fully seated and locked into the handle before applying torque to prevent slippage or fastener damage. Follow applicable code requirements and equipment manufacturer torque specifications when tightening critical fasteners.
