The TorqIT torque guns are ideal in tire service applications on equipment and vehicles in the commercial and OTR industries.

AME International launched its programmable cordless torque gun series, the TorqIT. Made in the U.S., the TorqIT series was designed to provide high-precision battery-operated torque. Available in four models ranging from 120-3,000 ft-lbs in torque, the TorqIT torque guns are ideal in tire service applications on equipment and vehicles in the commercial and OTR industries.

Battery-powered and lightweight, the TorqIT torque gun series allows for portability and one-person operation in the shop and field. The TorqIT batteries are equipped to last approximately 300-500 sequences on a full-charge, and once the batteries run low, can be fully recharged within 60 minutes. The digital programmable screen on each model provides consistent and accurate torque with every use. The TorqIT also features a built-in speaker that emits an audible beeping indicator and additionally provides a visual indicator as the reaction arm backs off the wheel nut as the desired torque is met. Each torque gun is outfitted with a standard reactionary arm, and other styles are available to accommodate a variety of applications. 

“TorqIT’s battery-operated application in HD trucking and earthmover equipment is revolutionary,” commented Keith Jarman, president of AME. “Feedback from units sent to the field for testing was unanimous, the technicians have voted overwhelmingly in favor of this tool. It is precise and user-friendly.” 

Impact guns are commonly used to torque wheels in commercial and OTR tire fleet service, risking inaccurate torque and potentially leading to wheel-off incidents. With TorqIT, each unit is tested and outfitted with a certified calibration certificate and backed by a 13-month warranty.
