The Imada Cedar DI-12-SL Automatic Breakaway Torque Tester is designed to find the actual yield tightening torque value for specific thread joints which consist of a variety of thread types, multi-layered material, hole sizes, etc.

Torque controlled power tools are set to apply consistent torque, but fasteners are not necessarily tightened to that value if the tools are not calibrated. A breakaway test is used to verify the actual tightened torque of a bolt.

Breakaway torque tests require a skilled, experienced operator to sense when the bolt begins to breakaway. DI-12 automates this complex operation. Once breakaway torque is measured, power drivers can be reset to the proper tightening torque. 

DI-12 Automatic Breakaway Torque Tester drives the test piece at consistent speed and detects breakaway torque without overtorquing pretightened fasteners 

DI-12 outputs torque data continuously to data acquisition software via the USB virtual COM port, enabling the display of breakaway torque profiles

Features

• Both CW and CCW operation
• 1/4" female hex
• Peak, Real Time and Breakaway/Yield measuring modes (selectable)
• USB virtual COM port sends peak (1 data) or continuous data (12 or 80 data/second)
• Detects breakaway torque without overtorquing pretightened fasteners
• Detects the yield torque of the screw joint
• Displays real time torque values and captures peak torque
• Tightens fasteners to preprogrammed torque values

Specifications
