Ok. Not sure what your budget is but this looks like torque wrench heaven in 1/4". http://www.amazon.co.uk/Gedore-DREM...04/ref=sr_1_10?ie=UTF8&qid=1299522768&sr=8-10
i see guys break some heavy stuff with the company torque wrenches, they're prolly a mile out of cal. knowing that, the genius' in charge of maintainance decided to ban all personel calibrated tools starting this month, more room in the box, less in the garage
If whatever you are torquing is horizontal, then use any wrench & a known weight at a specific distance for setting the torque. Example: 10 ft.lbs would be a 10lb weight at the end of a 1 foot wrench. Or you could at least test your torque wrench that way..
Don't know what field of maintenance you're in but I do know if it's aviation, that shtuff is taken VERY seriously. At least on the DoD side. Sounds like you know your way around a T-wrench regardless!
Wow! That last link had a lot of choices! I ende up with a Westward Clicker [20 to 200 inch lbs or 2.26 to 22.6 nm. I got it from Granger for about $86. I know from this post that there are better & more accurate choices[& more expensive]but for what I do I am satisfied. Thaks everyone for your reply's.
