Torque wrenches

[Robert_374242026]

I happened to talk to someone about importance of tightning wheels on caravans and car in my place being they are both in alloy.He said that i could have one that he has had years but does not use it.Taking a look at it as i have never used one before it only goes up to 50 nm/45 lb ft. does thi mean it is useless for caravan wheels? Would appreciate advise.

My caravan steel wheels need 88Nm torque and my car alloys need 110Nm. I believe that caravan alloys should be torqued to 110Nm.

Argos sell torque wrenches that go up to about 200 Nm. The one you've been given isn't any use on your alloys.
