Attention Metric fans! Great for ft-lb. Not for Nm.

I have decided not to buy a digital device due to a chronic problem with swapping out batteries when I need to use something right away. The instrument itself looks good and feels solid. I will continue testing while I collect the motor. One problem, however, could easily have been prevented. The bar has a ft-lb and Nm scale. Another precision scale is located on the bar handle. The caveat here is the accuracy scale, which only applies to foot-pounds (0 to 4 foot-pounds in 0.4 increments). If you have specs in Nm and want to use the Nm scale on the rod then you can't use that exact scale...unless you do a bit of mental math to get the exact value or convert your specs to feet . pounds first and use the scale instead. Example: I want to tighten something with 26 Nm. The Nm scale is marked at 21.7 and the next increment is at 27.1 Nm on the scale. The accuracy scale ranges from 0 to 4 ft-lb. A simple solution would be to attach a second precision scale to the handle, designed for tiny Nm increments.

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Cable is shorter than others
