On a theoretical level, the socket extension can act as a torsion bar, reducing the torque getting through to the head of the nut or bolt. I don't think this makes much of a difference for a normal s

I don't understand this. At equilibrium, the torque at all points of the extension will be equal. It HAS to be since the wrench/extension/bolt is not moving. Sure, you'll have to feed more energy int

Ummm, I don't think that's too likely. Any torque you apply to one end of the extension is going to have to be opposed by the equal opposite torque at the other end. Sure, it twists some (not so as

Theory or no, my beam type torque wrentch came with a formula for the correction factor. It's not much though.

Huh? The torsion bar effect, which is very real, will not affect the torque being applied to the bolt head one bit. All that happens is you have to moce the torque wrench through a greater arc befor

Maybe everybody is right. I'm not sure, though--there must be a lot of engineers in the group for whom this is duck soup. My reasoning, as far as I can take it, is: A beam-type torque wrench imposes

Perhaps you can best answer this one yourself with this following mental exercise: 1. Hang a 5lb weight from a hanging type scale... What does the scale read? 2. Now, place a spring between the scal
