  2. Screw gun - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_gun

    A screw gun looks like a drill, but has a "nose" instead of a chuck. The nose holds an interchangeable 1 ⁄ 4-inch (6.4 mm) shank bit, commonly known as a tip. The most common types of tips are 1 inch (25 mm) No. 2 Phillips, T25 Torx, and flatheads. The nose on either type of screw gun can be adjusted to countersink screws to the desired depth ...

  3. Western Forge - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_Forge

    Western Forge was founded in Defiance, Ohio in 1965 as a joint venture between Sears and C. William Schlosser to make torque wrenches. [3] In 1966, it relocated to Colorado Springs, Colorado, where it built a new manufacturing facility. In the next few years, the company began producing screwdrivers, punches, chisels, adjustable wrenches, and ...

  4. Battery torque wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battery_torque_wrench

    It contains a planetary torque multiplier or a gearbox. A reaction device that absorbs the torque rather than the tool operator. The torque output is adjusted by varying the voltage on the motor. The battery torque wrench is used to remove stubborn nuts, or to apply accurate torque. The gearboxes can have multiplication ratios up to 125:1.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dual-mass_flywheel

    Dual-mass flywheel section. A dual-mass flywheel (DMF or DMFW) is a rotating mechanical device that is used to provide continuous energy (rotational energy) in systems where the energy source is not continuous, the same way as a conventional flywheel acts, but damping any violent variation of torque or revolutions that could cause an unwanted vibration.

  9. Talk:Screw - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Screw

    The screw has a head on one end that requires it to be turned with a tool. After Tiny Particle edit on 19:10, 18 February 2024: The screw head on one end has a milled slot that commonly requires a tool to transfer the twisting force. Tiny Particle's edit is wrong: 1. It is doubtful that the head of a modern screw is made with a milling process.
