Description
Factory automation cells hold dozens of small screws that set alignment. For example, one loose rail screw or valve manifold bolt can stop a whole line. The Snap-on TER6FUAC torque wrench lets technicians check those joints and keep the peak value on the dial. It pairs a 1/4-inch drive with a dual N·m and in-lb scale, and it comes with a calibration certificate.
How the follow-up pointer helps in tight cells
Inside a robot cell, the technician often reaches past guards and cable trays. Then the dial may face away during the pull. On the TER6FUAC, a second pointer travels with the main needle and stays at the highest value. So the technician can finish the pull, step back and read the result in good light. Afterward, return that pointer to zero before the next joint.
Catalog facts for the TER6FUA
- Square drive: 1/4 in.
- Scales: 8.4 N·m in 0.2 N·m steps, and 75 in-lb in 1 in-lb steps.
- Body: 9-29/32 in long, 2-11/16 in wide, 1-1/4 in head depth without the drive.
- Snap-on case: PB9.
These figures sit in the Precise 1% table of Snap-on catalog CAT1500i. The catalog adds that a C suffix orders the certificate version, so TER6FUAC is the certified form of TER6FUA. In this size, Snap-on shows no Signal model, only the TER6A Basic and this Follow-up.
Automation joints for the Snap-on TER6FUAC torque wrench
- Linear guide rail and carriage screws on pick-and-place axes.
- Pneumatic valve manifold and cylinder mounting screws.
- Gripper fingers and end-effector adapter plates.
- Flange screws on small servo motors.
First, take the target from the machine builder’s manual. However, check that it sits above 1.7 N·m or 15 in-lb, where the 1% band begins.
Care on the automation floor
Keep the Snap-on TER6FUAC torque wrench in its case between jobs, because loose tools pick up knocks inside a cell. Also wipe rail grease off your gloves before you handle the dial. Never push the needle past full scale. In addition, log each use against the certificate number. Then send it out on the interval your quality plan sets.

Automation technician FAQ
Why choose a follow-up dial over a click wrench here?
A click wrench only signals the set value. The TER6FUAC keeps the actual peak, so you can write it down.
Does an 8.4 N·m light signal version exist?
Not in the current Snap-on table. That row lists only the TER6A Basic and the TER6FUA Follow-up.
Can one dial serve metric and US manuals?
Yes. The face shows N·m and in-lb together, so no conversion chart is needed.
