Industrial-Grade Power

Equipped with a heavy duty 5:1 torque multiplier, NutCracker handles up to 1500 Nm of torque - enough for previously stubbornly over-torqued wheels. Input: 1/2" (regular ratchet/torque wrench), output: 3/4" (Porsche OEM centerlock socket). 

Precision Tested

Rigorously tested for accuracy. NutCracker consistently delivers results within an impressive 3% accuracy range. You can trust its precision every time.

Tailored Fit

With an adjustable reaction arm machined from T6 aluminium covered by 4-ply silicone for safe contact with your wheels, NutCracker ensures precise fit to (nearly) any wheel design, eliminating compatibility concerns and ensuring seamless operation. As long as there's at least 5 cm / 2" between wheel spokes, NutCracker will do its magic.

Solo Operation

NutCracker requires only limited braking force, thus saving you a cold engine start and second person's assistance altogether. It empowers you to change wheels solo, with minimal effort and maximum efficiency. You will only need a simple reverse clamp from your hardware store to use between the driver's seat and brake pedal to work on front wheels.

Compact and Portable

Designed with convenience in mind, NutCracker boasts a compact size and comes complete with a high-quality carrying case measuring 360x300x105 mm and weighing just 4.5 kg. Take it wherever you go and tackle centerlock wheels no matter where the road takes you.

Well made and accurate

Was surprised (perhaps I shouldn't have been) by the weight and solidity of the NutCracker. It is very solidly engineered and, when tested, also accurate in its delivery of torque. Happy customer.

Definitely recommend this! It makes changing the wheels sooo much easier!

Ordered the NutCracker so giving my personal experience on it. Didn't get a discount and wasn't asked to post this. First off, ordering was super easy and shipping was surprisingly fast coming from overseas! The storage box is a nice touch for keep safe. Definitely recommend this! It makes changing the wheels sooo much easier! No need for a big huge breaker bar to get them lose and 1/2 drive torque wrench is all that is needed. I often take my wheels off so I can clean them and clean the calipers so this will speed things up. No damage to the wheels and less risk of the big heavy torque wrench falling off or slipping and damaging the vehicle. I followed the instructions and set to the recommended torque of 89ft lbs, and then double check it with Precision Instruments torque wrench, and they both match. If you're on the fence about buying this, don't be!

Centerlocks made easy at a reasonable price

I had a different lower ratio (3.5:1) torque multiplier without a wheel spoke reaction arm before this.

But having the higher ratio (5:1) and a wheel spoke reaction arm both make the process so much easier. The reaction arm is well padded to distribute force on the wheel spoke and avoid damage.

And the price is excellent compared to other similar devices currently on the market. This really makes the loosening/tightening steps on centerlocks super easy.

NutCracker makes CL changing easy.

I swore I would never have a CL equipped car and I lied to myself when I got a 991.2 GT3RS. Before I could order the bulky 1:! CL torque wrench and breaker bar I read about the NutCracker on RennList. I have used Torque Multipliers in my previous life as a farmer on heavy equipment so I decided to give it a try. I did my 1st CL wheel change today. It was easy with no need for holding the steering wheel just a brake depressor and 1/2 torque wrench and done. Highly recommend. Also less than 1 week from order to delivery :)
