Torque tools are used throughout aircraft maintenance and assembly to ensure fasteners are tightened to specified requirements. From routine maintenance to critical component installation, technicians depend on torque equipment to apply the correct amount of force consistently.
KELI Labs provides calibration services for torque tools used by airlines, MRO facilities, FAA repair stations, aerospace manufacturers, and other aviation organizations.
Aircraft maintenance procedures frequently specify exact torque requirements for bolts, fasteners, fittings, and other components.
A torque wrench that has drifted outside of tolerance may apply more or less torque than its indicated value. This can create problems ranging from improperly secured components to damaged fasteners or assemblies.
Regular calibration provides documented evidence of how accurately the torque tool performs across its required operating range.
KELI Labs supports a variety of torque measuring equipment commonly found in aviation operations, including:
During calibration, the torque tool is tested against an appropriate reference standard at specified points throughout its operating range.
The indicated or applied torque is compared with the reference measurement to determine the tool’s performance and whether it meets the applicable tolerance.
Results are then documented on the calibration certificate. If a tool is found outside of tolerance, adjustment or repair may be required depending on the equipment.
There is no single calibration interval appropriate for every torque tool.
Calibration frequency may depend on factors such as manufacturer recommendations, frequency of use, previous calibration results, tool handling, customer requirements, and the criticality of the application.
Organizations should establish intervals that provide sufficient confidence that their torque equipment remains suitable throughout its period of use.
Airlines, repair stations, and MRO facilities may manage large inventories of torque equipment distributed across multiple technicians, departments, or locations.
KELI Labs is structured to support both individual torque tools and recurring high-volume calibration programs with organized receiving, documentation, and equipment return.
We aim for turnaround times of one week or less from the time equipment is received, whenever equipment condition, capability, and workload allow.
KELI Labs supports aviation and aerospace organizations with reliable calibration for torque tools used throughout aircraft maintenance, repair, inspection, and manufacturing operations.
Whether you need calibration for a single torque wrench or an entire aviation tool-control program, our goal is to provide accurate results, traceable documentation, and fast turnaround to help keep your equipment ready for use.
