Senior Airman Hunter Shaw, 445th Aircraft Maintenance Squadron aircraft hydraulic specialist, uses a torque wrench to tighten a nut on the front hydraulic strut of a C-17 Globemaster III at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, March 16, 2025. A torque wrench is used to ensure fasteners like nuts and bolts are tighten to a specific, predetermined torque value, which is crucial for safety, proper assembly, and performance of equipment. They prevent both overtightening and under tightening. (U.S. Air Force photograph by TSgt Joel McCullough)
