Abstract
The tightening tool includes: a main body configured to be able to be held by a worker and including a turn detector; a head having an approximately rod shape and provided in the main body, which can engage with a tightened member; a head pin configured to pivotally support the head in the main body to turn the main body with respect to the head; and a spring configured to restrict the main body from turning with respect to the head by a compressive force in a longitudinal direction of the head. When a tightening torque reaches a preset torque value, the turn detector is released from restriction by the spring to turn around the head pin in a first direction and then turn in a second direction, and therefore detects turns of the main body with respect to the head in the first direction and the second direction.
