Testing Snap-on's electronic torque/angle wrench
Anyone who has serviced engines (as well as certain driveline and chassis components) that date from roughly the early 1990s to the present is aware that many OE threaded fastener tightening requirements call for a combination of torque-plus-angle specifications as opposed to a torque-only spec. Common applications for this procedure include but are not limited to cylinder head fasteners, main cap fasteners and connecting rod bolts.
