Torque wrench

Post by Doctor T »

Just had an email from the weight nd measure testers stating my torque wrench is out of tolerance. I usually get this tool tested every 5 years but this time due to the age cant be set correctly. Had this wrench for over 20 years and the only original parts are the head and handle, Bit like triggers broom.
I like it because the range has massive as it could go from 5nm to 70nm. There is not one single wrench on the mrket that covers that range anymore. So could i have some recommendations on a few wrenches that would cover the lower and top ranges?

Cheers David again. Your better than a excepida Britannia. Seeing as the Tang tool wrench has served me well for over 20 years I've ordered 2 Tang tools wrenches. The non-digital type.
Thank you for your help. :cheers:
