"The CP7600 replaces two wrenches, bringing the process of wheel tightening into a new world of safety for both mechanics and end users," says Humphreys. "The Blue Tork family of fastening tools provides a layer of security to the wheel tightening process, assuring no under- or over-tight3ening of bolts, which can cause wheels to break loose from their mounts. Blue Tork is designed to help commercial truck and bus technicians service vehicles back to their original, blueprint torque specifications."
