Description
Small fasteners fail in quiet ways. For example, a sensor nut that sits a little loose can drift, while a fitting pulled a little tight can crack. The Snap-on QC1I200 torque wrench body targets that small-fastener zone. It is an adjustable QC series body that sets from 40 to 200 in-lb, and it takes J-shank interchangeable heads.

Snap-on QC1I200 torque wrench body specs
| Range | 40-200 in-lb (about 4.5-22.6 N·m) |
|---|---|
| Increments | 1 in-lb |
| Shank | J (0.425 in) |
| Length | 9-3/8 in |
| Accuracy | ±4% clockwise, ±6% counterclockwise, 20-100% of full scale |
Because 20% of 200 in-lb equals 40 in-lb, Snap-on’s accuracy statement covers the whole scale of this body. The QC1I200 also works counterclockwise, though within the wider ±6% band.
How the QC1I200 body and its heads work together
The body holds the click mechanism and a micrometer-style scale. Then a push of the locking pin releases the head, and the next one locks in its place. So one body can drive a socket, then an open-end head, then a box-end head in a single shift.
Small heads for small parts
Snap-on’s UK torque brochure reserves several of the smallest J open-end heads for the QC1P100 and QC1I200 bodies. The 1/4 in QJO8A is one example. As a result, the body can reach tiny nuts on instrument tubing and sensor bodies.
Mind the head length
Each head places the fastener at a set distance from the pin, and for J open-end heads Snap-on lists 2.50 in. So if you fit a head with a different distance, follow Snap-on’s head-length instructions before you rely on the setting.
Adjustable QC1I200 or a preset body?
An adjustable body lets a technician change the value at the bench in a few turns. A preset body, in contrast, holds one value for a line that repeats one joint. Therefore, choose the QC1I200 for repair, test and prototype work, where each part has its own spec. Typical jobs include:
- Pressure sensor and transmitter fittings, such as on hydraulic test stands.
- Small pneumatic fittings on test rigs.
- Cover screws as well as cable glands on control panels.
Sourcing the Snap-on QC1I200 torque wrench body
Lost in HCM is the supplier behind this listing, so it confirms price and lead time. Snap-on’s catalog notes that standard adjustable QC bodies come without a calibration certificate. However, it also lists certificate versions that add a C to the part number. So tell Lost in HCM which version you want when you ask for a QC1I200 quote.

Low-torque QC1I200 FAQ
What is 200 in-lb in N·m?
It is about 22.6 N·m. The bottom of the scale, 40 in-lb, is about 4.5 N·m.
Does the QC1I200 include a calibration certificate?
Snap-on’s catalog says the standard version does not. Ask Lost in HCM about the C-suffix version if you need one.
Can I use it on left-hand threads?
Yes. Snap-on rates the QC series at ±6% counterclockwise, compared with ±4% clockwise.
