Re: Sears Torque wrench for wheels

And me as well. I bought my first "cheapo" 25 years ago and checked the calibration. I worked in a instrument calibration shop and it was as good as our expensive ones. I still have it and have bought two more just like it (but smaller) at HF over the last ten years. I use all three 1/2-3/8-1/4 all the time. For $60 for all three, they are great. No more broken bolts! Ron

$150+ versus the less than $20.

purchased a somewhat expensive torque wrench years ago to rebuild engines with. Also have the harbor freight under twenty wrench. Sometimes I double check with both, never any difference. When finished always reduce tension down to zero before storing. Go figure
