Description
German and Italian machines often use DIN 933 bolts and DIN 934 nuts, and in M14 those carry a 22 mm hex. The Snap-on QYXM22A box end head grips that size with a closed 12-point ring on the Y shank (0.560 in). So a plant that runs European equipment can torque its M14 hardware on a mid-size body.
DIN M14 versus ISO M14
ISO 4032 and ISO 4017 give M14 a 21 mm hex, one size smaller. A 22 mm ring on a 21 mm head will slip and round the corners. Therefore, measure the hex across flats before you order the QYXM22A. If your parts follow ISO, Snap-on prints a 21 mm Y ring as well.
Y bodies for the Snap-on QYXM22A box end head at a fixed M14 value
| Body | Type | Range |
|---|---|---|
| QC3P150 | Preset | 30-150 ft-lb |
| QC3P200 | Preset | 40-200 ft-lb |
| QD3IN200B | Adjustable | 40-200 N·m (37-140 ft-lb) |
| CTECH2Y100A | Electronic | 5-100 ft-lb |
A preset body suits a station that tightens the same M14 joint all shift, because the operator cannot change the value. Note that Snap-on ships its preset QC bodies without a calibration certificate. By contrast, the QD3IN200B covers mixed values and comes with one, while the CTECH2Y100A logs each pull. All four take the Snap-on QYXM22A box end head in the same Y socket.
Side room for the Snap-on QYXM22A box end head
The QYXM22A measures 32 mm across and 14 mm deep, according to Snap-on’s UK brochure. So allow about 16 mm from the bolt center to any wall or rib. The bolt also sits 3.00 in from the retaining pin. That is shorter than the 4.50 in reach of the X version, so the Y ring swings in a tighter arc.
QYXM22A rating: confirm on the quote
Two sources we checked print different working limits for the QYXM22A, so neither appears on this page. Lost in HCM confirms the limit with the quote. Meanwhile, Snap-on’s own rule still applies: do not exceed rated torque.
How Lost in HCM handles a QYXM22A order
Lost in HCM supplies the ring, and SMK Vietnam lists it as a partner product. Mention your Y body and whether the joint follows DIN or ISO. Then request a quote from Lost in HCM. For other sizes, open torque wrench heads and adaptors, or send a fit question to SMK Vietnam.
22 mm or 21 mm? Quick answers on the QYXM22A
Does the QYXM22A fit an ISO 4032 M14 nut?
No. That nut has a 21 mm hex, so order the 21 mm Y ring, the QYXM21A.
Can a CTECH2Y100A drive this ring?
Yes. It is a Y-shank ControlTech body that reads 5 to 100 ft-lb and stores each result.
Which J ring matches the 22 mm size?
Snap-on prints the QJXM22A for J bodies, with the same 32 mm width and 14 mm depth.
