Could somebody please list the hex wrench sizes I'll need for my XCR-L in my field tool kit? Also, any recommendations on a good torque screwdriver to keep on the bench at home?
I tried doing a search for this--no dice. Sorry if it's repeated information.

Hey thanks guys, this is really helpful. Also, does anyone have a good torque screwdriver they particularly like? A lot of the ones I see are either too big to fit in a field kit, or are el-cheapo Chinese crap.

Also, check out Lowe's Hardware's tool section. They have an allen wrench/hex key set made by "KOBALT" that sells for about $6.00 and has ALL the sizes that we need, to the best of my knowledge. It works great. It is strong and durable. The nicest folding hex kit I have ever seen...... NOW, I am looking for a "T-Handle Torque Wrench". I have a 1/4' on order, that I plan to use to make certain the barrel bolt is down at ?? 120 inch pounds?
Ah.....more goodies to spend Our money on. lol!

200 inch/lbs = 16.66 ft/lbs.
250 inch/lbs = 20.8 ft/lbs.
in case you were wondering.

There was a thread somewhere, that someone mentioned/linked to a harbor freight 3/8 torque wrench. I just spent half an hour looking for it and couldn't find it again, even using the search. Anyway, I just bought one today. http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=807but it is now on sale at my local branch for $14.99 until, well, I didn't write it down but the 25th or the 28th March 2010. Check it out ASAP. Thought you might want to know. ADD: You can get Husky 7-piece hex socket and 11 piece torx set adapters from Home depot for about $12-14. |
