Slipper torque wrench Wera 05004180001

The Wera 05004180001 Slipper torque wrench set is a compact 16-piece kit designed for precise torque control on bicycles and other applications requiring careful fastening. The set centers on a click-type torque wrench (Click Torque A 5) with a 1/4" square drive and an adjustable range of 2.5–25 Nm, meeting DIN EN ISO 6789-1:2017-07 accuracy standards. Included are 4 sockets with 1/4" drive, 7 Hex-Plus hexagon bit sockets and 4 TORX® bit sockets, all stored in a durable textile case with colour-coded "Take it easy" size marking.

Advantages

The torque wrench offers audible and tactile clicks at set torque values and a robust release mechanism to prevent over-tightening. Its 45-tooth reversible ratchet allows precise clockwise torque control and convenient ratcheting action. Bit sockets feature a holding function that secures fasteners for easier single-handed screwdriving, while Hex-Plus geometry improves bit fit, wear resistance and concentricity. The textile case provides additional surface protection, low weight and compact storage for mobility.

Suitable for

• Bicycle maintenance and assembly
• Precision mechanical fastening where 2.5–25 Nm is required
• Workshop and mobile service tool kits
• DIY projects involving small fasteners with TORX® and hex heads

How to use

Set the desired torque on the Click Torque A 5 by adjusting the scale and saving the default value. Use the wrench in clockwise direction for torque control; the tool emits audible and tactile clicks when the set torque is reached and the release mechanism will disengage to prevent further tightening. Fit the appropriate Hex-Plus or TORX® bit socket onto the 1/4" drive and, if needed, use the bit sockets' holding function to keep the fastener in place during insertion. After use, store all components in the textile case to protect tool surfaces and maintain compact transport.

Recommendations

For accurate results, calibrate or verify the torque wrench periodically according to workplace requirements and avoid using the tool beyond its 2.5–25 Nm range. Use the Hex-Plus sockets to reduce fastener rounding and employ the holding-function bit sockets when working alone or in confined spaces.
