Wrench Torque Formula
The following formula is used to calculate the Wrench Torque.
Tw = F * sin(af) * R
- Where Tw is the Wrench Torque (N-m)
- F is the total force applied to the wrench (N)
- af is the direction of force applied to the wrench (deg)
- R is the length of the wrench (m)
How to Calculate Wrench Torque?
The following example problems outline how to calculate Wrench Torque.
Example Problem #1
- First, determine the total force applied to the wrench (N). In this example, the total force applied to the wrench (N) is determined to be 15 .
- Next, determine the direction of force applied to the wrench (deg). For this problem, the direction of force applied to the wrench (deg) is measured to be 45 .
- Next, determine the length of the wrench (m). In this case, the length of the wrench (m) is found to be .10.
- Finally, calculate the Wrench Torque using the formula above:
Tw = F * sin(af) * R
Inserting the values from above and solving yields:
Tw = 15 * sin(45deg) * .10 = 1.060 (N-m)
Example Problem #2
Using the same method as above, determine the variables required by the formula. For this example problem, these are:
total force applied to the wrench (N) = 16
direction of force applied to the wrench (deg) = 40
length of the wrench (m) = .75
Enter these given values into the calculator or above yields:
Tw = 16 * sin(40deg) * .75 = 7.713 (N-m)
