Question

which of the following statements about torquing is correct?
o a beam - type torque wrench shows the user how much torque is being applied as it is applied
o torque wrenches are most accurate when the desired torque is at the far end of their range
o torque units should never be converted from one unit to another
o always apply a lubricant to the bolt threads before torquing it

Explanation:

A beam - type torque wrench has a mechanism that allows the user to see the amount of torque being applied in real - time as it is being applied. Torque wrenches are most accurate in the middle of their range, not at the far end. Torque units can be converted (e.g., from foot - pounds to newton - meters). Applying lubricant to bolt threads can change the torque value and is not always recommended without considering the application requirements.

Answer:

a beam - type torque wrench shows the user how much torque is being applied as it is applied
