A disposable torque limiting device comprising: a generally hollow cylindrical body with a partially closed distal end; an upper shank component formed inside the partially closed distal end of the cylindrical body; a circumferential rim formed on the outside of the partially closed distal end; a second torque-limiting interface formed on the inside of the partially closed distal end having an axial bore; a lower shank component within the cylindrical body comprising a proximal end, a distal end, a neck extending from the distal end, a drive socket fluidly connecting the proximal end and the distal end, and a first torque-limiting interface disposed on the proximal end, wherein the upper shank component and the lower shank component are aligned along an axis in the direction of the axial bore and the drive socket with the first torque-limiting interface in contact with the second torque-limiting interface; a coil spring placed above the lower shank component on at least partially around the neck configured to apply compressive force along the axis to compress the first torque-limiting interface against the second torque-limiting interface; a tool collar with a flange extending radially, a front on one side of the flange, a square leg formed on the opposite of the flange and a shaped channel there through rotatably fit into the circumferential rim; a tool shaft with a threaded back portion and a front end (31-) having a tool channel therein; catches formed on the tool shaft configured to mate with the shaped channel whereby the tool shaft can be inserted through the tool collar but rotate within the shaped channel; a threaded retaining member configure to engage the threaded back portion; and, wherein the tool shaft and threaded retaining member cooperate to apply a predetermined force to the lower and upper shank components by affixing the tool shaft through the tool collar, the axial bore, the drive socket and the coil spring and affixing the retaining member thereto. a generally hollow cylindrical body with a partially closed distal end; an upper shank component formed inside the partially closed distal end of the cylindrical body; a circumferential rim formed on the outside of the partially closed distal end; a second torque-limiting interface formed on the inside of the partially closed distal end having an axial bore; a lower shank component within the cylindrical body comprising a proximal end, a distal end, a neck extending from the distal end, a drive socket fluidly connecting the proximal end and the distal end, and a first torque-limiting interface disposed on the proximal end, wherein the upper shank component and the lower shank component are aligned along an axis in the direction of the axial bore and the drive socket with the first torque-limiting interface in contact with the second torque-limiting interface; a coil spring placed above the lower shank component on at least partially around the neck configured to apply compressive force along the axis to compress the first torque-limiting interface against the second torque-limiting interface; a tool collar with a flange extending radially, a front on one side of the flange, a square leg formed on the opposite of the flange and a shaped channel there through rotatably fit into the circumferential rim; a tool shaft with a threaded back portion and a front end (31-) having a tool channel therein; catches formed on the tool shaft configured to mate with the shaped channel whereby the tool shaft can be inserted through the tool collar but rotate within the shaped channel; a threaded retaining member configure to engage the threaded back portion; and, wherein the tool shaft and threaded retaining member cooperate to apply a predetermined force to the lower and upper shank components by affixing the tool shaft through the tool collar, the axial bore, the drive socket and the coil spring and affixing the retaining member thereto.
