TORQUE WRENCH MARKET REPORT OVERVIEW

The global torque wrench market size was approximately USD 0.39 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to USD 0.6 billion by 2033, at a CAGR of 4.9% during the forecast period.

Torque wrenches are the devices used to employ a particular torque to the fastener tools such as bolts, nuts, and others to avert excess or less-tightening. These tools have significant importance in tightening screws and bolts is crucial. Generally, four types of torque tools are available in the market. Those types are pneumatic torque wrenches, electronic, manual, and hydraulic torque wrenches. These tools allow the operator to measure the applied torque on a fastener such as nuts or screws to match the conditions for specific applications.

Torque wrenches are extensively used in industrial applications such as automotive, mining, aerospace, construction, and others. These wrenches are used in automobile production activities to maintain and repair vehicles. It allows the operator to measure or estimate the torque that is supposed to be applied to the fastener tools to balance with the specific application’s specification. The torque also allows loading and precise tension to all the parts of the machine where it is implemented.

COVID-19 Impact: Lack of Equipment and Workforce Retarded Market Growth

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with torque wrench experiencing higher-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels. The spike in CAGR is attributable to the torque wrench market growth and demand returning to pre-pandemic levels once the pandemic is over.

The pandemic impacted every market and the machinery and equipment sector was also not an exception. The spread of COVID-19 resulted in stringent rules and guidelines to avoid the virus spread. These guidelines included shutting down the manufacturing industries, which affected the market's growth rate. Disruption in manufacturing and supply chain was noticed. The workforce witnessed a downfall due to their health concerns. Even though the pandemic supplemented most workforce to work from their homes, the limited budget deemed the work rate. The demand for machinery and equipment witnessed a downfall due to low manufacturing and supply
