When assembly work requires higher preset torque than the PTW50IC range, the Cleco PTW100IC Preset Mechanical Torque Wrench provides controlled tightening from 15 - 74 ft-lbs, equivalent to 20 - 100 Nm. This model is built for repeat fastening operations where supervisors, quality teams, or tool crib managers want the torque value set in advance rather than adjusted at the workstation. Its interchangeable head design uses a 14 x 18 mm interface, allowing the wrench body to accept compatible Cleco heads for different clearance and access requirements.
The PTW100IC uses a preset mechanical torque format, meaning the torque setting is protected beneath a tamper-resistant cover to help prevent unintended adjustment during production use. Cleco rates the PTW series at +/- 4% clockwise accuracy in the upper 80% of wrench capacity, supporting repeatable tightening on medium-to-larger fasteners in automotive, heavy truck, agricultural equipment, aerospace, appliance, and industrial assembly work. The wrench is supplied with a 120XP ratcheting head, and the 120XP’s 3° swing arc helps users work around frames, brackets, and tight mechanical assemblies with less handle movement.

- Preset mechanical torque control supports repeat fastening work where the target torque should remain fixed during use.
- Torque accuracy of +/- 4% CW helps maintain consistent tightening results in controlled assembly and maintenance processes.
- Tested for 100,000 cycles before recertification, helping reduce downtime in high-use production environments.
- 14 x 18 mm interchangeable head interface accepts compatible head styles for applications that require different access angles or drive configurations.
- Supplied with a 120XP ball lock ratchet head featuring a minimal 3° swing arc for improved usability in tight work areas.
- Comfort grip includes a line showing the correct operating position, helping users apply force from the intended hand location.
- Tamper proof preset beneath a cover helps prevent unauthorized or accidental torque adjustment.
- Conforms with ASME B107.300-2022 standards and specifications.

Applications:
- Automotive and fleet production — tightening suspension brackets, frame hardware, accessory mounts, and other fasteners within the 15 - 74 ft-lbs range.
- Heavy truck and agricultural equipment assembly — applying repeatable torque to medium-to-large mechanical joints, guards, housings, and equipment subassemblies.
- Aerospace and precision manufacturing — supporting controlled fastening procedures where preset tools help standardize operator output.
- Industrial maintenance and MRO — issuing a fixed-range torque wrench for jobs that require controlled tightening rather than general ratcheting.
- Appliance and machinery assembly — fastening panels, mounts, frames, and mechanical components where repeat torque values are required across multiple units.
FAQs:
- Q: What torque range does the Cleco PTW100IC cover?
A: The PTW100IC covers 20 - 100 Nm, or 15 - 74 ft-lbs. It should be selected when the required fastening torque falls within that published working range. - Q: What does interchangeable head mean on this torque wrench?
A: Interchangeable head means the wrench body can use compatible heads that fit its 14 x 18 mm interface. This allows different ratcheting, flex, or head configurations to be matched to the application without changing the wrench body. - Q: Is the PTW100IC adjustable during normal use?
A: The torque value is preset beneath a tamper proof cover. This helps keep the tool locked to the intended torque setting for repetitive assembly tasks. - Q: Does this wrench include a ratcheting head?
A: Yes. The Cleco PTW preset mechanical torque wrench series is supplied with a 120XP ratcheting head. - Q: How is the PTW100IC different from the PTW50IC?
A: The PTW100IC has a higher torque range at 20 - 100 Nm / 15 - 74 ft-lbs and uses a larger 14 x 18 mm interchangeable head interface. The PTW50IC covers 10 - 50 Nm / 7 - 37 ft-lbs and uses a 9 x 12 mm interchangeable head interface.
