ISO 1174-1: Assembly tools for screws and nuts — Driving squares
Part 1: Driving squares for hand socket tools
ISO 1174-1 specifies the dimensions, separation force and designation of driving squares for hand socket tools.
ISO 6789 (now split into ISO 6789‑1:2017 and ISO 6789‑2:2017) is the global standard for hand torque tools, defining conformance testing, calibration, tolerances, and marking to ensure reliable torque control in bolted connections. It applies to indicating (Type I) and setting (Type II, e.g., click) torque wrenches, covering design validation, production quality checks, and recalibration. ISO 6789 is applicable for the step by step (static) and continuous (quasi-static) calibration of torque measurement devices, the torque of which is defined by measuring of the elastic form change of a deformable body or a measured variable which is in proportion to the torque.
