Greetings All,
We have a stack of parts which needs to have the height measured with 100 lbs of force applied. The plan is to put the stack in a vise and, using a torque wrench, tighten to handle to 100 ft/lbs. This doesn't seem right to me. Will 100 ft/lbs of torque equal 100 lbs of compressive force on the part between the vise jaws?
Many TIA, CH
