What kind of Torque Wrench do you have/use/recommend?

I need to get one, but not sure which one.

Prices ranges from 7 dollars to $20 to even $100.

Any good recommendations?

 

I have the Gorilla as shown in nsxnext's thread in ATL. Highly recommended.

 

I've got a Craftsman, always love there tools, and the lifetime warranty/gurantees are all pretty good.

I suggest getting a 3/4 and getting a 3/4 to 1/2 adapter.

there are 3 types of torque wrench..two are with reading meters.one is click meter.i think the click meter wrench works best but it is most costly too.i have a meter torque wrench.bought for $20...works great also

 

I have a reading meter type from Home Depot for about $30... it sucks.

Get the clicking kind... their best.

I just ordered this torque wrench from Boston Industrial.

Total price is $30.45 ( $24 and $6.5 Shipping charge)

 

I just get delivery of the new Torque Wrench.

It is almost 20" long, delivred the next day (Wow!).

It looks same as in the picture above.

I say it's a fabulous buy for just $30. The closest model at Sears would cost a $100!!!!

Thanks Yahoo!

 

amir wants to know if this is a clicky turney thing!!!!! :o :o :o

 

It's and it is not... at the same time

It does make a clik, but only once..... It is a freaking huge one and it's not Amir's kind of clik......

Ha ha ha confused....

 

That is a great deal on that torque wrench, just be sure it doesn't break the first time you use it!

 

the one u ordered and the photo showed is a click type torque wrench which is best.i might want to get one for those too.i know some shop sells click type torque wrench for only $19.99..

 

Just out of curiosity, why did you go with the 1/2". Most basic wrenching will require 3/8" sockets and no more torque than what a typical 3/8" can provide.

Unless you are tightening you own lug nuts?? But then again, it is nice to have both a 3/8" and a 1/2".

 

The 3/8" is for only $19.99. The 1/2" is for only $4 more. 10-lbft to 150 ft.lb. 4% Accurate. It has the 1/2" to 3/8" adapter too... and I can titghen my own lug nuts ....

The only problem I see with one is its size. Too big, in some tight placees yoou would prefer the smaller one.
