The advanced technology and intuitive design of the new Snap-on TechAngle Torque Wrenches make it possible to tighten fasteners to exacting torque and angle standards faster and more accurately, even under the most demanding conditions.

“Today’s vehicles require pinpoint precision nearly everywhere and those high standards keep getting more and more exacting throughout the automotive industry,” said Bryan Hantke, product manager for Snap-on. “Snap-on TechAngle wrenches are intuitive, making them extremely easy to use. These wrenches provide a number of benefits that a mechanical wrench does not, such as better accuracy and four ways to detect torque (LCD, LED, audible, vibratory) to accommodate virtually all shop environments. Not only are electronic torque wrenches more precise, but our TechAngle wrenches allow you to perform torque and angle sequences faster than traditional mechanical torque wrenches with angle gauges. This helps get jobs done faster, increasing productivity and the bottom line.”

Available in three sizes, 1/4-inch drive (ATECH1FR240B), 3/8-inch drive (ATECH2FR100B) and 1/2-inch drive (ATECH3FR250B), the Snap-on TechAngle wrenches feature:

  • Dual progressive LEDs that allows the user to see active torque at various work positions;
  • Color coded LED system enables the user to anticipate torque and slow down as they get closer to desired torque level;
  • Large LCD screen numbers become larger and bolder during active torque, making it easier to read during use;
  • Textured grip offers a comfortable, non-slip surface;
  • Flared end prevents hand from slipping off during high leverage applications;
  • Ratchet mechanism features Snap-on Dual 80 design with only 4.5 degrees of ratchet arc;
  • Cycle counter ensures how many fasteners have been torqued;
  • Six measurement modes (ft. lbs., in. lbs., Nm, dNm, Kgcm and angle) at the touch of a button;
  • Torque accuracy ±2 percent CW, ±3 percent CCW, 20 to 100 percent of full scale; and
  • Industry leading two-year warranty.

Diagnostic Procedures For Stop/Start Systems

Stop/start technology is more than just a switch wired to the brake pedal and starter.

When trying to resolve a complaint, code or no-start/no-crank condition on a stop/start vehicle, it is essential to know how the system operates. The problem may not have a complicated reason – something simple may be causing the stop/start system not to work.

The greatest obstacle to the advancement of stop/start technology is the driver’s and technician’s lack of trust in and knowledge of the technology. Many older drivers and technicians fear that stopping and starting the engine will cause a shorter life for the battery, starter and engine. But the real fear is that the engine will not start again at a green light.
