Real Avid Limiter 25 Inch Lbsreal Smart-Torq Fixed
$29.99
The Real Avid Limiter 25 Inch Lbs Smart-Torq Fixed is a precision torque limiter designed for shooters and gunsmiths who need repeatable, accurate fastener control. Built for the critical work of mounting scopes, securing action screws, and installing scope rings, this fixed-setting tool eliminates guesswork and protects your rifle's delicate components from the damage that over-torquing causes. At 25 inch-pounds, it's sized for medium-duty applications where precision matters as much as speed.
The tool works with a simple, reliable click-style overload clutch that gives you tactile feedback when the torque limit is reached—you feel and hear it stop, so you know you've hit the mark. That design keeps you honest: once the limiter reaches 25 inch-pounds, the clutch slips rather than letting you drive harder. No calibration, no dial to adjust, no second-guessing. Pair it with any standard 1/4-inch hex driver and bit, and you've got a compact, purpose-built addition to your gunsmithing kit that works the same way every time.
This is the kind of tool that pays for itself the first time it saves a $500 scope from stripped threads or a cracked action screw hole. Whether you're mounting your own glass at the bench or you take pride in doing precision work right, the Real Avid Smart-Torq delivers the consistency that separates amateur assembly from professional results.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a torque limiter and why do I need one for mounting a scope?
A torque limiter is a hand tool that stops turning at a preset force, preventing you from over-tightening fasteners. Scope rings and action screws require specific torque to hold properly without crushing threads or cracking the receiver. A fixed-setting limiter like this removes the risk of user error and protects expensive optics and gun metal.
Is the 25 inch-pound setting right for my rifle scope mount?
That depends on your specific scope rings and action screws—check your manufacturer's torque spec. The Real Avid Smart-Torq lineup includes fixed settings from 7 to 100 inch-pounds to match common applications. If you're unsure, consult your scope or rifle manual before purchasing a torque tool.
What's included with this torque limiter?
The Real Avid Limiter 25 Inch Lbs Smart-Torq Fixed is the tool itself. You'll need a standard 1/4-inch hex driver or bit to use it, which most shooters and gunsmiths already have on hand.
How do I know when I've reached the correct torque?
The click-style clutch will slip and provide tactile feedback when you reach 25 inch-pounds, signaling that you've hit the limit. Stop turning at the click, and your fastener is torqued correctly without risk of over-tightening.
