I like this torque wrench for casual works. I wouldn’t say it’s good enough for real pressure sensitive uses, but you get what you pay for. Adjusting bikes/trampoline nuts – it’s ideal.

I had to find a YouTube video to work out what the click was like when it reaches the torque – hopefully the video I uploaded helps. It’s a small click, but if you’re looking out for it you’ll notice it. The best option is to go slow when you’re getting close to the torque you need. You can double check if you’ve missed it by slowly turning again – it’ll click straight away if it’s at the right torque.

Switch on the back to go from clockwise to anticlockwise. Torque only works in the clockwise direction.

Easy enough to adjust the dial, just undo the screw at the bottom to loosen, turn the ribbed handle part, then retighten the screw.

5.0 out of 5 stars Listen for the click! Great torque wrench for hobbiests and general use

Not everyone is a trained mechanic or pretending to be one. Sometimes simple things are slightly confusing. Luckily there are videos on how to use this type of non digital torque wrench on YouTube for someone who like to tinker with atv’s and tractors etc, which do need specific tightening tensions. I’m not and don’t pretend to be a mechanic but once you watch a tutorial on YouTube it’s surprisingly simple to use and reassuring to know you have followed the manufacturers instructions when doing a bit of vehicle home maintenance (especially on a grizzly where everything has a different tightening torques). Ft/lbs and nm choices are available, although why we are using ft/lbs I don’t know just adds more confusion unless you are pre 1970 or American, funnily enough it’s just as well as most videos on Yamaha grizzly’s maintenance are American and only report ft/lbs! Small enough for fiddly areas but reassuring weight and size to tackle most jobs. Small click on reaching the right torque, job done. Feel like a proper mechanic doing an oil change.

I bought this to keep in my 7.2ton Iveco daily motorhome to remove the front wheels annually for rust proofing and to enable me to change a flat at the side of the road. It’s a good value tool for my needs and has worked perfectly so far. If I was using regularly in a professional capacity I would have spent the extra on a teng wrench but considering it will likely only remove and re torque a maximum of 50 bolts a year for me it’s ideal.

Not had a chance to use it yet, but the setting system is really set up for lb.in settings rather than Nm. If you want 53 lb.in, you dial up 50 lb.in on the main scale, then 3 on the micrometer scale. If you want 13 Nm, you can’t set that directly. The main scale has 12.4 and 14.1 Nm, and the micrometer 15 intervals around. You have to convert 13 Nm to 115 lb.in, and set that as 110 + 5. Not impossible, just not as simple as dialling up 10 +3. (If you really wanted a mental work out, you could set it to 12.4 + 5/15 of (14.1-12.4), which is the same setting. So, not set up for Nm…)

although not being the most expensive item it is solid enough at almost 1.3 kgs. the instructions are easy to read and understand. calibrated in both foot/pounds and newton/metres. having used this item i can confirm that it works a treat. no more of not being sure if my wheel studs are at the correct torque. i need my glasses on to read the calibrations but that’s just me!!

I needed this for 300Nm crankshaft new nut install. I checked this wrench against another that I have, that I know is calibrated, and it is as good as my other one for stated accuracy. One slight criticism is the 1/2 inch square drive is slightly undersize compared to my other 1/2 inch tools. It has a click fit ball bearing so it’s not a big deal; just a bit loose. Highly recommended 🙂 A+

Nicely presented tool in a hard plastic protective case. Easy to use with inch and Newton metres on the rotary dial. Looks as though it will last a long time in the hands of a diyer. All in all a good value produc

This was the cheapest torque wrench I could find.
It arrived very quickly in a solid packaged box. The wrench itself came in a sturdy (heavy duty) black clip case.
The wrench is some strong bit of kit, I wasn’t expecting it to be so robust, This has been used on some pretty tough jobs and is standing up to some heavy pressure. No signs of wear and tear just yet after a few months being used.
Very happy, I would recommend!

I have NO idea how to use a torque wrench. It appeared simple enough. Initially, it seemed to click all the time, so I couldn’t determine when the correct torque had been achieved. After YouTube “how-to” vids, I realised that I need to tighten the wrench when setting the torque, which may be why it seemed to click continuously(??). Saying that, after this revelation, the one click I think I hear is not very audible, so I have to hope that this is correct and just in case, attempt to tighten with a manual wrench too. Quite good value compared to most others I’ve seen.

Pros: Received fast and well packaged. I have checked calibration on to a wheel nut using a scale and ruler and seems to be quite good calibrated, about 5% tolerance.
Cons: the item was obviously used and not new ! It had minor signs of wear.
When it came it was set to almost half of the torque and recommendation for this kind of tools is ti store them at the minimum setting in order not to overload the spring inside.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good torque wrench

Good solid torque wrench comes complete with a nice plastic storage box but could do with a few tweaks as below…

I found the adjustment handle to be quite stiff so when changing limits it does take quite a bit of twist force, also like another reviewer I found the torque click to be rather quiet as so when tightening it can be easily missed and from my experiences the torque wrench will continue to tighten if the click is missed! Lastly just the alignment of the handle measurements weren’t amazing, mine was slightly lower than the measurement lines.

Other than what I’ve mentioned above, the item its sturdy well made and for the price I’m sure better than most competitors at this price point. Perfect for DIY usage.
