The Torque Wrench 1/2 Drive, 10-170 Ft-Lb, Loud Click, 3 Percent Accuracy, 72-Tooth is one of our picks for the torque wrench lineup. Everything below comes straight from the manufacturer's published listing - specs, capacities, and dimensions are theirs, not ours.
A torque wrench turns "tight enough" into a number - and on scaffold couplers, structural fasteners, and wheel lugs, the number is a safety spec, not a preference. Click-type wrenches here publish their ranges and accuracy (typically ยฑ3-4 percent); store them backed off to their lowest setting, and recalibrate on the maker's schedule for spec-critical work.

What to check before you buy
- Range, not maximum
- Accuracy is specified over a stated portion of the range, commonly 20 to 100 percent of full scale. A wrench used near the bottom of its range is at its least accurate.
- Calibration interval
- Manufacturers typically specify recalibration after a set number of cycles or a fixed period. A wrench that has been dropped needs checking regardless of the interval.
- Storing a click wrench
- Click-type wrenches are wound down to the lowest setting for storage to relieve the spring. Leaving one set at high torque shortens its accurate life.
- Direction of use
- Many click wrenches are only calibrated in the tightening direction. Check before using one to loosen anything.

Frequently asked questions
How accurate is a torque wrench?
Typical click wrenches are specified around plus or minus 4 percent in the clockwise direction, over a defined portion of the range. Accuracy outside that portion is not guaranteed.
How often should a torque wrench be calibrated?
Follow the manufacturer specification - commonly a fixed number of cycles or an annual interval, whichever comes first. Recalibrate immediately after a drop or any suspected overload.
Should I store a click wrench at zero?
Wind it down to the lowest setting on the scale rather than forcing it below zero. This relieves the internal spring while leaving the mechanism within its designed range.
Can I use an extension or adapter?
An extension in line with the drive does not change the applied torque. An adapter that extends the length of the wrench does, and the setting has to be recalculated.
Click, beam or digital?
Beam wrenches are simple and hold calibration well but need a clear line of sight. Click wrenches are fast and the standard for production work. Digital wrenches add logging and angle measurement at higher cost.
