Review on NEIKO 03714A 1/4-Inch Drive Adjustable Click Torque Wrench, SAE, 20-200 Inch-Pound, Chrome Vanadium Steel, 10.75-Inch Length by Mike Davan

GENERAL: I'm a fan of (most) car maintenance and was looking for a pair of torque wrenches to add to my toolbox. I didn't want to spend a lot of money on these wrenches since they're only used a couple of times a year, but I also didn't want to risk an overly cheap tool that might not click when needed and cause expensive damage. I chose the Neiko Pro keys because of their relatively low cost, the style of the lock/unlock mechanism, and the fact that they're factory tested (at least they have a sticker on them that says so). Tools I own (casting marks on the head of the ratchet, not treated with "mirror" chrome). I tried testing the torque wrench right out of the box and found it didn't click and I was immediately concerned that it was defective. I tried the higher torque torque wrench again and found that it actually works. I have found that when you set the torque wrench to its lowest setting (40 in-lbs) you can feel something in the wrench loosen causing it to stop working. I wouldn't recommend using this button at the lowest settings, but other than that it worked fine. In general, I would recommend testing the torque wrench at the desired setting (e.g. on a clamping nut) to get a feel for the breaking force before you start tightening the sensitive screws. Another key I bought is mentioned in this review. was a Neiko Pro 3/8 torque wrench.
