CDI 1501MRPH 1/4-Inch Drive Adjustable Micrometer Torque Wrench, Torque Range 20 to 150-In.lbs

CDI is a subsidiary of Snap-On, and this torque wrench is of very high, Snap-On quality. I have this one as well as a CDI inch pound dial torque wrench and both are of very fine quality. I will go ahead and spread a rumor here, because I believe it to be true: This is an american-made handle and torque/spring mechanism with a Taiwanese head. The Snap-On wrench of similar size and values is the same one save for the head. I got the plastic handle. I might have had some buyer's remorse over that after I ordered it and found that the metal-handled version is like $15 more, but when I got this and looked over the build (including the plastic handle) I have no regrets whatsoever. The handle is indeed plastic, but it is not cheap at all. This is a solid, accurate (calibration sheet included) product. It has a very decent price. The plastic case is good, but does not allow the wrench to clip into place, so it rattles around in the case a small amount. I say this because both of my also-excellent Kobalt (Lowes) torque wrenches have similar cases, but the wrenches snap into cradles so the chances of damage due to shifting around in your truck's tool box are very much minimized. I wish this one had such a case. Otherwise I am *very* pleased with this wrench.

Nice heavy duty hard case, solid tool that seems to be of great quality. I use it for torquing my lug nuts on my vehicles and ATV. It would be nice to be able to calibrate it to make sure it's spot on.

Solid construction, easy to read settings, easy to use, durable, reliable. The click is very pronounced when it's used properly. Just keep pulling without slowing down in anticipation, and it'll give you a loud click. This tool is well worth the money. I use it to torque my tire lug nuts to spec practically every time I take them off, and I've also used it on my timing chain sprocket, a critical component in an engine that you don't want to come loose. The amount of leverage I get with this thing makes practically any conceivable automotive fastening situation on my 1999 Toyota Tacoma Prerunner a breeze as far as ease of pull goes. I dropped it once and it still seems to read right on. The results and peace of mind that everything is fastened to spec is well worth the money invested in this tool in my opinion. It's definitely a quality tool. And Lord willing, especially with taking care of this instrument, I see me using it several cars down the line with some routine recalibration over the years.

So far it appears to work great. Not sure how to tell how accurate the torque is but seems fine.

This is a very impressive torque wrench! I'm really glad I got the 30-250ft/pd wrench, instead of the 20-150ft/pd. As others have said, this one comes with a certificate, and 6 testing results, in 3 different ft/pd ranges (6 due to torque testing, 3 in forward, and 3 in reverse). The very most mine tested at (for being off the set torque mark), was at the 150ft/pd setting, and it was only 1.7% off The other 2 settings they tested it at, was from 1% off, to under .6% off. I consider that extremely impressive, considering the accepted error range, for most other torque wrenches of this type is +/- 4% off. The wrench itself feels very heavy duty, and solid. I really like the rubberized handle, for sure grip. It's easy to read, and easy to set at your desired torque setting. Everything about this torque wrench is very high quality. It's exactly what I wanted in a good torque wrench! You do need to reset the torque setting to the lowest setting, before you finish using it. Don't leave it at 150ft/pd, or 200ft/pd, lower it back to 30ft/pd, then store it in the case that comes with it. I'd highly recommend it to anyone looking at this one!
