Why is this important?

• The correct torque protects components, ensures secure screw connections and is safety-critical in many applications.

Explanation

The rotational effect of a force, a pair of forces or any other system of forces on a body.

Torque is a physical quantity and has the designation "rotational force".

The internationally used unit of torque is the newton-metre (abbreviated to Nm).
One newton-metre represents the rotational force required to rotate an object with a lever arm about a specific point.

We distinguish between tightening torque and loosening torque
