A tough and affordable digital cap torque tester for measuring screw cap opening and closing torque

The CAPTEST is a tough and affordable manual digital cap torque tester, measuring clockwise and anticlockwise torques up to 5 N.m. It can be combined with a printer or statistical mini-processor for regular, repetitive testing of screw-top closures. Its smooth stainless steel housing makes it ideal for clean test environments.
