## Description

VANPO 1/2" HVAC Torque Wrench, 10-170 Ft-Lb, 38mm Jaw & Ratchet Head | Adjustable, Interchangeable Head, 14x18mm Open End, ±3% Accuracy, for Refrigeration, Split AC, Auto, Heat Pump Piping - desertcart.com

Review: Great Tool for Self-Installing a precharged Mini-Split HVAC - I bought and installed a Mr Cool 24K BTU mini-split in my shop. One requirement of installation was to torque the lineset connections at evaporator and condenser units prior to opening valves. While I own other torque wrenches, I had no crow's foot sockets that large in metric sizes and the price to purchase a full set of decent crow's foot was more than I cared to spend for something I am unlikely to use again. Instead, I purchased this unique torque wrench with an interchangeable adjustable wrench and standard ratchet head, which I will likely use again. It was worked very well for torquing the lineset to the required 55-60 ft-lb, which is not small feat while standing on a ladder, though I needed to use a cheater to get the necessary leverage in place. The blow molded plastic case makes a great place to store the wrench on a shelf until I need it again.
Review: This will over tighten your bolts/nuts - I had my doubts about the calibration on this so I compared it to the two other torque wrenches I own. I torqued two bolts to 50 ft-lb then tried this one and instead of clicking right away it kept tightening. I wouldn’t use this, especially for HVAC work.

## Features

- 🔧 TWO WAYS TO USE – JAW & RATCHET HEAD: This adjustable torque wrench comes with a 38mm open-end jaw and a 1/2" 72-tooth ratchet head, both sharing a 14x18mm interchangeable interface. Use the jaw head to grip flare nuts on mini-split AC lines, heat pump piping, and plumbing fittings. Switch to the ratchet head for automotive lug nuts, motorcycle axle bolts, and engine fasteners. One interchangeable torque wrench does the work of an entire drawer of tools.
- 🔄 INTERCHANGEABLE HEAD SYSTEM: The 14x18mm open end on this hvac torque wrench lets you swap heads in seconds — ratchet heads, open-end spanners, or torx heads. This modular design means one wrench body adapts to countless jobs: HVAC service ports, car brake calipers, motorcycle engine covers, and industrial hydraulic line fittings. A single interchangeable torque wrench that grows with your needs.
- 🎯 HIGH ACCURACY & DUAL SCALE: Calibrated to ±3% accuracy in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions, this adjustable torque wrench ensures precise tightening from 10 to 170 ft-lb. The laser-engraved dual-range scale is clear, wear-resistant, and easy to read even in dim compressor cabinets or under a car chassis. Whether torquing a heat pump coupling or a truck lug nut, you hit factory specs every time.
- 🔒 EASY-TO-FEEL 'CLICK' & AUTO-LOCK: Pull down the lock knob, set your desired torque, and release — it automatically rebounds to lock the value in place. When the preset torque is reached, this hvac torque wrench emits a clear, audible “click” and a tactile pulse through the handle. Foolproof feedback protects delicate aluminum AC fittings, carbon bike components, and cast engine parts from over-tightening.
- 🛠️ WIDE APPLICATION & HVAC TOUGH: This adjustable torque wrench excels in tight spaces. Use it on HVAC and refrigeration: mini-split and multi-split AC flare nuts, heat pump service valves, and compressor bolts. Automotive: lug nuts, spark plugs, brake caliper brackets, valve covers. Motorcycle: sprocket nuts, engine covers. Plumbing: water heater connections, compression fittings. All backed by a rugged build that handles daily shop and field use.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Hi - the label on this says the scale is from 20-220 Nm, but the listing says 27.1-218 Nm (which = 20-160 ftlbs). Which is correct?**
A: Can't answer HVAC use

**Q: Can this be used to torque Electrical panel breaker screws, 2-6AWG wires screws, etc?**
A: I wouldn’t recommend using a large metal tool in an electrical panel. Breaker screws should be hand tightened enough to  judgment. Over tightening can crack breaker body making breaker unsafe and dangerous. Use well insulated screwdriver with good fitting tip and gloves and breaker off, know where live voltage is at all times.
