FAQ

What torque range does the TW-5.2 cover?

The TW-5.2 covers 2 to 14 Nm, which includes the torque specs for the majority of bicycle fasteners including stem bolts, brake levers, seatpost clamps, derailleur hangers, and cockpit hardware.

What bits does the TW-5.2 accept?

The TW-5.2 uses a standard 1/4-inch hex bit drive, compatible with the hex, Torx, and Phillips bits included in most Park Tool and third-party bit sets.

Do I need a torque wrench if I only work on alloy components?

Yes. While alloy is more forgiving than carbon, over-tightening fasteners on alloy components can strip threads, distort clamp areas, and cause premature failure. A torque wrench is good practice regardless of frame material.

Best For

Mechanics and cyclists assembling or servicing any bike with carbon fiber components, electronic groupsets, or precision-torqued hardware where manufacturer specifications must be followed accurately.
