The Company
In 1942 the 'North Bar Tool Co.,' (as Norbar was then known) became the first company
in Britain to commercially manufacture a torque wrench. Since then, Norbar has continued
to invest in the very latest design, manufacturing and quality control technology to
achieve the highest level of innovation and precision in the field of torque control
equipment.
The company now has the largest and most modern plant in Europe devoted exclusively to
the design, development and production of torque tightening and measuring equipment.
Quality Control
Norbar's quality assurance system has been certified to internationally recognized
standards for more than a decade, culminating in achievement of ISO 9001 in 1995. Most
importantly, through continuous improvement, Norbar is dedicated to making quality more
than just a word, but a way of life.
Calibration
All power tools ('Pneutorques' and 'Electrotorques') are individually calibrated.
Transducers of 5000 N.m (or 5000 Ibf.ft) and below in use on the production line are NAMAS
certified. All others are calibrated with traceability to national standards.
