Calibrated to an accuracy of +/ 4% in the clockwise direction and +/ 6% in the counterclockwise direction, the TEKTON 1/4 in. Drive Click Torque Wrench lets you work with confidence, eliminating guessing and the common tendency to overtighten fasteners. Correctly tightening fasteners to a manufacturer's torque specifications ensures parts are properly secured without being damaged. Simple and easy to use, this wrench measures torque in both clockwise and counterclockwise directions. To measure torque, turn the springloaded adjustment collar to the desired setting (inch pounds or Newton meters) and release to lock in place. Tighten the fastener in a slow and controlled motion. When the preset torque value is reached, a reliable mechanical operation inside the handle produces a click you can hear and feel, alerting you to stop applying force. Built for consistent performance and years of dependable service, the mechanical design doesn’t need batteries, and the steel and aluminum construction has no internal plastic parts to wear out.
IMPORTANT: This wrench is shipped precalibrated and ready to use. To help maintain calibration, store at its lowest setting of 10 in.lb./1.1 Nm when not in use. Be sure to read and understand the operator's manual, including all safety information, before first use.

I was skeptical and hesitant to purchase this Tekton torque wrench because it's not from one of my preferred German or Japanese brands for quality precision tools. When I read the 1-star reviews from other customers, I noticed most were about broken internals after use -- maybe misuse from my own experience now with the tool. What I received looked really well constructed and with high tolerances coming out of the box. When I used another torque wrench of known quality and accuracy to measure its accuracy, both were within a couple of inch pounds of each other -- well within error margins for even the best of these types of torque wrenches and well within my needs. This is a really great value tool for the price: good balance of accuracy and build quality for the price.I've used other Tekton tools in the past -- no, they are not quite in quality to "Wera" or "Knipex," but they sure do deliver in value if you know what to expect. This 1/4 inch drive torque wrench from Tekton is no exception to what I've encountered with the brand in the past.

Nice wrench! I use it for bike mechanical work. Easy to set and read the scales, seems accurate (at least when compared with other wrenches), and handy that it is bi-directional. It feels solid and smooth in your hands. The case is pretty nice -- hard shell with a zipper, and not to big to store easily.One thing to think about. The scales use even numbers for inch-pounds (10, 20, 30, ...) but not for Newton-meters (they are 1.1, 2.2, 3.4, ...). Most bike specs are even numbers in N-m -- a lot of parts even have the specs engraved on them. So using N-m is not as easy as it could be. I have seen other wrenches with the even numbers in N-m, so I know it can be done. Just something to consider, and the only reason for not giving five stars.Like all wrenches of this design, TEKTON recommends storing the wrench at its minimum setting, and so I do.Fully satisfied with this tool. Thanks for reading!

I bought this for oil pan and transmission pan gasket jobs, which require both the right torque and consistent torque between bolts. The other concern is that since the steel bolts are going into aluminum threads, you must not over tighten or you'll strip the threads. This inch pound torque wrench did great. At each bolt I could both hear and feel the click clearly, and at each bolt it felt like it was clicking at the same pressure.Setting the torque is easy, and there is a positive engagement at each foot pound setting. The settings are easy to read.The wrench feels solid and it comes in a nice zippered hard case that keeps it protected in my tool drawer.

É um produto excelente para apertar parafusos e porcas sem correr o risco de apertar de menos e ficar frouxo ou apertar demais e espanar a rosca ou o parafuso/porca. A escala de 1.1 a 16.9Nm permite que se use este torquímetro em ajustes delicados. A única coisa chata é a calibração no sistema imperial (libras, polegadas etc) em vez do SI (Newton, metro etc) o que exige atenção na hora em que for ajustar o torquímetro por isso é MANDATÓRIO LER O MANUAL tanto na operação quanto na hora em que for guardá-lo. Recomendo comprar um adaptador de 1/4 quadrado para 1/4 sextavado ou estriado caso queira usar bits de parafusadeira.

Instruction are clear and easy to understand -This is JUST a torque wrench - does not come with any attachments - -In my opinion, it's best for use with bolts up to about 1/2" - if possible, get the bolt or equipment manufacture's specs on max torque. My purchase was for M8 (3/8") bolts at 12NmOne CAN order a wide variety of accessories (personal experience), and, as it's a standard 1/4 inch drive, most users will likely already have most everything that will be neededOnce the tension is set, ( up to 150 inch/pounds [in-lb] or 16.9 Newtons/Meter [Nm] - ) there is no need to "read" anything - When the set torque is reached, there is a slight "bump" that is felt through the handle. (if your hearing is better than mine, you may hear a "click") The instructions suggest - wisely - to practice a bit to "get the feel" of proper operation.Personally, as I am getting old and my eyesight is getting bad, I prefer this method - - Because I don't have to struggle to read a scale or a display to know when I've reached the desired torque. (Being a bit of a gorilla, I have a tendency to snap bolts off - especially small bolts (1/2" is "small" to me) - so this tool is a great damage saver)Setting the desired torque is also very simple. Although some folks who are not familiar with the technique may have a short learning curve, it's just a matter of turning a knob until marks line up. The instructions have very clear pictures.The settings are in both ASE and Metric, so it is not necessary to mess around with conversion tables or calculators - although a conversion table IS included with the instructions.One precaution though. This is an all meta tool - if using on electrical equipment (which is my usage) it would be wise to wrap electrical tape around any accessory that may be at risk - and keep it in good shape. Shock hazard aside, a short circuit can cause extreme heat and serious burns.This precision instrument comes, as it should, in a nice hard fabric storage case with a tight zipper - the instructions fold nicely in the case - the tool is held in place in a pocket on one end, a Velcro strap on the handle. This case comes in a plastic bag and in a nice sturdy cardboard box - I store this combination in my home - not the garage or tool box - as befits a fine scientific instrument.One last thought - described in the instructions - my grandfather, a custom jeweler and watch maker, taught me that springs - and this device depends on a spring - springs have "memory" - that is, if left wound up, they loose their temper (as if they got angry and being cooped up too long) and 'forget' what they are supposed to do. SOOOoooo, always change the setting to the lowest point when puting this tool aside - especially when putting it into storage. Otherwise, it will loose accuracy over time.

Easy to set, with two scales (metric and imperial). Its a bit of hassle on the need to set it back to low tension value for storage.
