The wrench is gorgeous, and the plastic clamshell case is great. The instruction manual is decent, which you don't always expect with Tekton. Overall I'm very impressed with the quality of this tool, especially for the price.
The handle is long, with a knurled grip, and there's a locking nut on the end to hold your preferred measurement. Applying the 80ft-lb my Honda needs barely even registers as effort. The locking nut has a hole, so you can use another object to torque the retaining nut. A pick, an allen wrench, or a heavy cotter pin are all ideal tools.
This is the type of twist wrench that needs to be reset to 25ft-lbs when storing. Make sure you do that, and keep the wrench in a controlled environment, and it should serve you well.
Yes store it in a controlled environment. This is a precision instrument, so keeping it stored outdoors during freezing winter or burning summer may affect performance.
The usual notes on a torque wrench. The wrench only works clockwise, aka "right-y tight-y". The click function will not activate counter-clockwise. This wrench is not meant as a breaker bar or for constant use during the whole tightening process. It is meant only to be used as a precision instrument to check the torque on bolts. I wonder if some of the people reporting problems have either stored the tool improperly (could affect spring rate), or perhaps were only "listening" for the click instead of feeling for it. Unless you have good hearing and a dead-quiet environment, it's possible not to hear the click, so you need to be focused and stop the moment you feel the click. Experienced users will also generally have a "feel" for different torque ranges. When I know my car only needs 80ft-lbs, I don't brace my body like I would for 150+.
On dialing in the measurements. The dial works in a slightly mysterious fashion for the uninitiated. Every mark on the handle is a "0" point, so both 50 and 75 are achieved when you spin the dial to "0", and check that the top of the dial is on that reading. This takes a little getting used to, because if you try to spin the dial straight from the minimum reading it will keep going "0,5,...20,0,5..." and personally that scrambles my brain a little. The better system is to start with the first reading UNDER your target. So if my Honda needs 80ft-lbs, I'd first set the dial to "75" and spin it to "0". Once I see I'm zeroed on the 75 reading, then I would twist to the "5" mark. 75+5=80ft-lbs. Then twist the locking nut firmly. I found that firm finger pressure was plenty, as for 80ft-lbs and with a lever this long I didn't even need to use the knurled handle - I could put plenty of pressure just using the part of the wrench above the handle, putting no strain at all on the locking bolt. For me, this is an ideal use case. I know I'm getting a perfect reading every time, because I'm not even stressing the retaining nut.
This wrench feels like a lifetime investment for me. It's beautiful, it works great, and since I'm not a mechanic I won't be putting that much stress on it. Overall very awesome.
I was originally just going to nip over to Sears and buy a Craftsman. However, I was horrified to discover how little faith they have in some of their products these days; Craftsman's usual lifetime hand tool warranty does *not* apply to their to torque wrenches, and is instead replaced by a **90-day** warranty. Three months? What on earth?? I guess that's what you get when you outsource to China.
(Source as of May 2014: [...] )
Appalled, I turned to Amazon instead. Snap-on is too rich for my blood right now, but I did consider picking up a CDI wrench (and in the long run, still might). Given how often I'm likely to use it, I figured I'd start on the low end of the price scale just to see what was available. I came across this wrench, and although it's not made in the U.S. (manufactured in Taiwan) Tekton is a U.S. company that does appear to be easily contactable in case any questions/concerns pop up. The same can't be said of a lot of the made-in-China stuff. They also appear to keep an eye out on Amazon for those with trouble, which is often a good sign.
Out of the box, the wrench comes in a reasonable enough red plastic case. It's not the heaviest plastic known to mankind, but it's not the flimisest either. It seems suitable enough for the purpose, which is good enough. The wrench itself has a decent heft to it, and doesn't give the impression of being cheaply made. The ratcheting mechanism on the head seems smooth enough.
One thing that caught my eye about this Tekton wrench is that they filled in the scale on the shaft in black. That sounds like a trivial thing, but that one little change makes reading and setting the wrench infinitely simpler than on other tools. I'm a huge fan of laser-etched sockets with big, clear figures instead of stamped markings (I have a Stanley set that I got for cheap that's etched); they're that much easier to read.
Anyway, I tried a couple of simple jobs with the new wrench, comparing it against a CDI wrench borrowed from work. I did a spark plug change and an oil change, trying both wrenches on the same jobs. In general, the Tekton is a solid-feeling tool. The torque adjustment mechanism doesn't feel nearly as smooth as the CDI, but at a quarter of the cost, I'm more than willing to overlook that. The setting locking mechanism is also far simpler than the one Craftsman we have at work (it has some sort of eighth-turn locking collar that never stays put)
The Tekton doesn't give a massively audible click when the set torque is reached, but I did find the motion at the set point was quite obvious when I hit it.
I couldn't feel any discernible difference compared to the CDI wrench in terms of accuracy. I tried tightening to the two limits needed for the job (13 and 28 ft-lb) initially with one wrench and then checking it against the other (and vice-versa), and found that neither showed much of a difference. Even on the more challenging 13 ft-lb setting (click torque wrenches being notoriously less accurate at the bottom end of their scale) I found no real difference in either wrench's behaviour.
Given the length of the handle, hitting 80 lb-ft might be a bit optimistic. That said, I can't think of any job I'm likely to do in the near future that would require that much oomph.
Overall, I'm very happy. This appears to be a better tool than I'd expected at this price, and given the cost is probably a better tool than the price deserves. It appears to be accurate enough (with the usual caveats that apply to all non-beam torque wrenches at the bottom end of their range) when compared with a much more expensive wrench, and although I didn't need it for the pair of jobs I've done so far, the facility to switch between standard and left-handed tightening seems like a bonus compared with some wrenches in this price range that just can't do that.
My only niggle is with the smoothness of the handle when turned to set the desired torque. For want of a better term, it's a little on the graunchy side. But for that, this would easily be a 5-star product. Even then, given how inexpensive this tool is, it's ever so close to getting full marks, but I like my tools to have a nice tactile feel to them, and this one aspect means I can't quite give it a top score. It works well enough, but it just feels a little off.
I'd call it a 4.5 if Amazon would let me...
