A straightforward method to record the peak torque value when using a cantilever spring mechanical torque limiting device

Implant cantilever beam torque limiting devices suffer from two prominent issues. 1. They do not record the peak torque applied. 2. They suffer from viewing angle parallax. A simple, inexpensive device, placed between the measurement reader arms of the instrument that can resolve these issues is described.
