On every job site in 20 years all you were handed was a 5/16 drill bit or you used your own 5/16 screw driver.

Yep, crank it down tight and move on to the next one.

And if it leaks, tighten it a little bit more.

HeII yeah, put some pliers on the nut driver to crank that $hit down.

Should I lose my vetting because I don’t own a “t-torquer”?

i mean I definitely would use it if somebody here bought me a seekonk 60in/lb 5/16” torque wrench, but I am not plagued by leaks on no-hubs bands or ferncos. Even to the dreaded clay pipe.

I have the Seekonk torque wrench it’s so old it turned from red to pink. The t-handle allows you to tighten it up easier than a 5/16 nut driver. I don’t fault anyone for not using one though. As long as there’s no leaks all is good.

I was looking for some insight and named drop that for this reason. I do enough cast I want one for peace of mind more than anything. I’ve used the ridgid one and the reversing lock is junk. The generic blue ones from the supply house don’t last a year. There is certainly a seekonk in my future it’s just hard to stomach the $90 tag for not every job tool

You’d be surprised, if you get a Seekonk and tighten a no hub with a 5/16 nut driver as hard as you can and then put the Seekonk on it and it will almost go another full rotation before it torques.

On the latest bigger jobs, the Milwaukee No Hub driver was the sweetest toy.

I wasted good money using EBAY with them taking their commission when I sold all variety of our Seekonks...should'a offered to the Pro's here to help promote quality and code-required spec's.

Torque tools are not consistent when you’re dealing with cheap stainless steel bands in a dirty environment.

I’ll stick with a 5/16 nut driver thank you.

Torque tools are not consistent. You post some trolly **** but this is downright funny. 🤡

They’re not, it’s fine you don’t agree.
