Neiko 03727A 1/4-Inch-Drive Beam Torque Wrench, SAE and MM Bicycle and Automotive Wrench, Reads in 0–80 Inches/Pounds and 0–9 Newton/Meter Increments

You are not going to find a better one for the price. Works great and fits in spots with comfort. Amazing durability. Used to set my rear end and it will be a tool i keep in my shop forever! I highly recommend this product and I'm not easy to please. Been working on cars for 15 years.

Perfect just what we needed for our machine shop-tool crib. Great quality and works as it should. size is on point and quaility is very well made

I was in need of a torque wrench that would go to at least 150 lbs. I looked at Sears locally but they only had gimmicky electronic ones that were very expensive. After looking through Amazon I found the Neiko 1/2" drive 50-250 lbs wrench. I was very nervous in clicking the buy button as I was scared of getting a piece of Chinese junk. When I got the wrench I was VERY happy when I opened it. This thing is a precision piece of equipment!! It is made in Taiwan (I wish they'd tell you where things were made when shopping on-line). The workmanship is great. I've owned a lot of woodworking machines over the years and the stuff coming from Taiwan has gotten better and better. This is a perfect example of pride in workmanship. The wrench works great, adjusts easily, has a very nice locking mechanism to lock the adjustment so it doesn't change while in use. The thing is very long - 24" which I thought was the same as the short one I saw at Sears (didn't measure it) but that must be a 18" wrench because this thing seems very long. The length helped to make the 150lbs torque on my lug nuts easy. It also has a rubber handle that feels great in my hand. All in all this is THE WRENCH. I'm thinking of getting a smaller one for those under 50 lbs of torque applications and I'm looking no where else but at Neiko. I'll have this wrench the rest of my life and am VERY happy with this purchase. It's the best value out of just about anything I've purchased in the past year. Thanks Neiko, well done!!

Solid feeling wrench, worked fine as I was using it on my car. The instructions have a conversion chart (ft lb to nm, etc), but I do wish they'd print Nm instead of kps as the secondary units. Setting torque is not hard to figure out although there is a misprint in my instructions. The shaft shows torque by increments of 5 (10, 20, etc on the left, 15, 25, 35, etc on the right). The twistable handle shows 0 to 4 along its circumference. So if you want 13 ft. lb. you twist until the 0 on the handle is lined up with 10 on the shaft, then continue twisting until the 3 is lined up. You now have 10 + 3 = 13 ft lb. At some points you may need to loosen the bolt on the bottom of the wrench to continue turning. Takes a little muscle to turn at some parts, much easier with gloves. For those confused about the lines, it is the "lower" line. The line dips so that when you have a shaft number (10, 15, 20, etc) aligned with 0 on the handle the text isn't covered by the handle. The "click" is very distinct. I can't speak to the accuracy; this is a pretty inexpensive wrench though. I will say I didn't break any bolts and my car hasn't fallen apart, which if that continues is good enough for me. Be careful when ordering, there is a ft. lb. and an inch lb. version of the wrench, make sure you selected the one you want.

Very nice! Pretty accurate and easy to use

My larger torque wrench is an expensive, but very well made Snap-on. As much as I love it, I didn't want to spend that much for a smaller 3/8 drive torque wrench. I tried one form Harbor Freight and it was just awful. I took it back... I was hesitant to use Amazon for purchasing a torque wrench for fear I also wouldn't like it. I decided to read the reviews and take my chances on what looks like the best quality for the money. The reviews for this wrench were very favorable, so I decided to take a chance on the Neiko Professional Grade model. I have to say that I am simply thrilled with this purchase! I tend to be pretty picky, especially when it comes to my tools. This is not the cheapest torque wrench by any means. But it certainly is a best buy in my mind. Here is what I like: Nice quality case came with the tool. It can torque both right and left hand directions. The handle adjustment seems very precise, easy to read and it feels like it works as intended. I like the handle. It feels like a very precise click. It clicks loud enough to hear and feel. The tool feels well made. I really don't have any negatives to report. The quality is really fantastic, but not the same as my Snap-On torque wrench. But it really feels good and is less than half the cost (almost a third) of the Snap-On tool. I am really pleased with the quality and I think it represents a very good value.

This is a great wrench for those who enjoy working on their cars. If you have space in your garage or house to store all these handy tools, then by all means, buy it. However, for those who live in an apartment, you can probably do without it.

It works well. For me it was a good purchase. However, there's one negative. There are two small screws holding the plate where you place the sockets, extensions, or whatever. Unfortunately, the plate is relatively thin so there's not much thread holding it down. Over time the threads wear down and then a screw falls out leaving the wrench in a non-working state. Its possible to put longer screws in, but sockets that are too big will no longer fit because the screw will be in the way! You can use an extension, but its notable that extensions can break when there's enough force which could be required when using the wrench to remove bolts. Also, when one of these two screws falls out, any use causes the gear to no longer have enough pressure to stay engaged inside the head, so it slips resulting in a wrench that does nothing for you. Is it fine to use this wrench to remove bolts when at least one person says that it isn't acceptable to do so? YES! The only notable thing that happened to mine is that the screws wear out over time. This should happen regardless! And ff it wasn't fine, they wouldn't offer the switch to do so.
