Torque Wrench扭矩扳手
A torque wrench is a hand tool that applies a controlled amount of torque to a fastener such as a bolt or nut, often with a click, dial, or digital indication when the target value is reached. In manufacturing and maintenance documentation, it appears in assembly instructions, tightening specifications, service bulletins, and quality checklists where specific torque values are critical for product safety and reliability.

Where this term appears
Torque wrench appears in localized assembly manuals, maintenance procedures, service checklists, and training materials for automotive, aerospace, and industrial equipment. Translators must render tightening sequences, torque units, and warning statements accurately, especially when instructions distinguish click-type, dial-type, and digital models; the term also appears in calibration logs and audit records.
Translation checks
A frequent error is translating torque wrench with a generic word for spanner or ratchet, losing the controlled-torque function and its safety implication. Another mistake is converting torque units incorrectly or omitting target values; this can lead to under-tightened or over-tightened fasteners, which may cause joint failure or equipment damage.

Check the distinction in context
A tool name and a tightening-torque value must stay connected to the correct step. Preserve units, ranges and the referenced tool specification. Do not insert a recommended torque or infer one from the tool’s capacity when the source omits it.
Check the returned Chinese file
Inspect the Chinese assembly step beside its drawing and tool reference. Keep the torque value, unit and component linked to the correct operation, and return a missing or conflicting source value as a technical question.
Prepare the connected files
Provide the complete step, drawing callout and tool reference. Ask the technical owner about any mismatch between the table and the instruction.
Keep the term aligned across your files
Check equipment names, units, safety instructions and interface labels against the source and approved references. Confirm any market-specific document requirements separately.
Provide approved terms and previous translations with the source files. Agree how variants, ambiguous wording and revisions will be reviewed. Terminology maintenance and any termbase handback are confirmed in the project scope. See the 8-step AI + expert workflow.
