Looking for Recommendations on Made in USA Torque Wrenches

Maintenance & Repairs

I had a Tekton for a while and it worked great! Comparable to higher-end brands at a fraction of the cost.

22

I’ve heard mixed reviews on some of the cheaper brands, though. People say you get what you pay for, right? Yet, it’s tough to argue against a deal!

23

Speaking of deals, does anyone know where to find the best prices on these wrenches? It often feels like a treasure hunt!

24

I love the thrill of the hunt! Online sales and local tool expos can be gold mines for discounts.

At the end of the day, it’s about finding a torque wrench that meets your needs without breaking the bank. So many options to consider!

I’ve been using a Proto torque wrench for over four years now and it’s still accurate! The grip is very comfortable, and I’ve only had to calibrate it once. Highly recommend it for anyone looking for reliability.

That’s awesome to hear! I’ve always been curious about Proto. Do you have any maintenance tips for keeping it in good shape?

I’ve got a craftsman torque wrench, and it’s served me well. It’s perfect for general car repairs. Always remember to return it to zero after use to maintain accuracy!

29

Great tip on returning it to zero! I just bought a Craftsman too—have you encountered any issues with it over time?

I’m a big fan of the Tekton brand for torque wrenches. They’re affordable, yet the quality is top-notch! I also find them easy to read, which is a huge plus.

I’ve heard great things about Tekton. Does anyone have experience using it on heavier tasks? I’m curious if it holds up well.

32

I use a snap-on torque wrench for my automotive needs, and I must say it’s an investment worth every penny! The comfort and precision are unbeatable. Get one if you can!

33

Sounds like a dream! Do they require special maintenance, or is it straightforward?

34

I’ve had my gearwrench torque wrench for two years, and it’s fantastic! The only downside I found is it’s on the heavier side, but the durability makes up for it.

35

Great to know! Heavy-duty is definitely appealing, but how does the grip feel with all that weight?

36

I bought a Husky torque wrench last year. It works like a charm! I’ve mostly used it for bike repairs and it’s perfect for that. Anyone else with bike experiences?

37

Husky is solid for bike repairs! I’ve had an older model, but since it’s been my go-to for years. Perfect balance of quality and price.
