How accurate is it? I need one for my bike.
Bicycle? Doesn't look right - many bicycle parts require torque at 5Nm and this apparently doesn't go below 30.
Maybe he means motorbike. Mine has a single side swingarm that needs around 200nm torque so this could be quiet useful.
@hoxygt: If its italian then 5nm not enough and it comes loose, 5nm too much and you strip the thread or cause 2000$ worth of damage and wait 6 months for new parts!
@hoxygt: If working at a large chain oil and lube center has taught me anything, 200nm is setting 3 on the rattle gun at 100-120psi air pressure.
If you did mean bicycle a 1/2" drive is a bit crazy. Try for a 1/4 drive.
@hoxygt: Depends if you're in the habit of doing stuff with cranks/bottom brackets or not. Outside of this area then yes, most torque specs on a bike are <10Nm.
The torque spec for Shimano Hollowtech II bottom brackets are 35-50Nm and the TL-FC34/TL-FC33 tools are 1/2" drivers.
Likewise SRAM GXP external bottom brackets are similar (34-41Nm), as is the bolt that holds the left arm onto the spindle (48-51Nm using an 8mm hex key no less, it's not a well designed system).
@serrin: Just note that Bottom Brackets tighten two different directions and not all torque wrenches measure both directions.
@Coley: True, most threaded bottom brackets are British and left hand thread on the right. Should get torque wrenches that work on both direction for bikes whether it's a 1/2" driver (bottom brackets) or small one (1/4" or hex driver - pedals).
Price has gone up now.
I purchased this a few months ago for the exact same price. Didn't realise it was a sale.
It's an ok tool, as long as you don't need immense accuracy it will do you fine. I bought it cause my roof rack needing a particular torque specification for the mount.
They're so easy to calibrate yourself. Unless you need more than 5% accuracy, buy one of these and check it before you use it.
ALWAYS store them with the spring unloaded. Once a year pull it apart and clean the threads of the handle and put a drop of light oil on it. It'll last forever.
Plenty of sites beg to differ. They say store at the lowest setting never zero or unloaded.
E.g. https://www.ultratorq.com/in-the-news/torque-wrench-storage-…
at this price its equally good 1/2 ratchet.
Yeah but its Craftright - hello bloodied fingers!
Let me guess Aldi has these next week.

Where did this come from?
Projectsuit seems to be Vic only now
As my previous comment said…
A) random number generator…
B) I went crazy on the phone…
Projectsuit seems to be Vic only now
umm no it still searches nationwide…
They mentioned in one of the Ozito/Aldi threads they were going to fix/update it in a couple of days. Guess that happened today then…
Im thinking of buying from eBay by using price beat guarantee of eBay of 5%
This is the usual price.
