When under- or over-torquing puts your products at risk, Mountz cam-over wrenches deliver the accuracy you need. Relied on by leaders in aviation, automotive, and electronics-all industries in which process control is critical-our cam-over wrenches use an internal clutch mechanism to reduce the risk of operator error by disengaging when the right level of torque is reached.
