For the Mathematicians:
I have a torque wrench that will only measure as high as 150 ft-lb. I need to torque a couple bolts to 300 ft-lb. I don't want to buy another torque wrench that will measure that high because I don't see much use for it (for me) other than for these two bolts.
I have a 24" breaker bar which will be strong enough to achieve 300 ft-lb, but I need somebody more mathematically inclined than myself to help me figure out the solution.
How many pounds of downward/rotational force will be needed at the 24" point on my breaker bar to achieve approximately 300 ft-lb of torque on these bolts?
Thank you,
Bruce
