[edit] Click Wrenches

Only certain types of click torque wrenches prevent over tightening past the desired torque; those are mostly the pneumatic gun type. Hand-ratchet click torque wrenches simply 'slip' to provide an audio and tactile signal when the desired torque is reached, they can continue pass the desired torque because after the clutch slips it strikes the inner wall of the wrench itself and stops the slipping motion.
