Re: [MBZ] HF click torque wrenches

The Harbor Freight "Icon" torque wrenches have tested well vs. Snap-on. They are also substantially more expensive than their "Pittsburgh" wrenches. I don't see any at HF that are in the in. lbs. range though, in any brand. Allan dan--- via Mercedes writes: > Don’t buy a HF inch pound torque

I bought one of these - https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B009MBG4MG/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 and use it to calibrate my old click type torque wrenches every time I use them. It does match the beam wrench I have, so I trust it. On Wed, Dec 18, 2019 at 10:53 AM dan--- via Mer

[MBZ] HF click torque wrenches

I saw an ad in Sunday paper that HF has the 1/4 3/8 1/2 click torque wrenches on sale for $10 any size.  I wonder if they are any good, seems like cheap enough to have a set in the tool box. I have a pretty good 1/2" Craftsman I got years ago. -- --FT ___
