Kobalt 1/4-in Drive Click Torque Wrench With Deep Socket Set

inch pound torque wrench,

This 1/4” drive torque wrench has the smallest drive head and has a great range of inch pounds. The sales assistant, his name is Curtis was the most helpful sales assistant I’ve ever met.

Odd storage case, loose part inside

- To open the case, I read Kobalt's reply to the reviewer who could not figure out how to pop the plastic rivet without destroying the clear plastic cover - Once opened, I turned the case upside down to try to get the wrench out. The wrench did not come out, but a small circlip did fall out onto the bench. - I carefully pried the wrench out of the case and looked for any place a circlip might have come from. - There is a small, black pin that holds the ratchet head to the handle (or perhaps i...

3/8 Tq Wrench

I bought this exact 3/8 drive torque wrench on sale a couple of years ago and it's been a welcome and reliable addition to my tool box. It has a very audible and haptic click when I've reached my set torque value. No complaints so far!

Nice little wrench for light duty

First off, for those of you who couldn't get the wrench out without destroying everything, please retire your tools and hire a mechanic. Had the wrench out in seconds and didn't damage anything. Here is a little tip, slice the top of the black pin and push the rest in, slide cover comes right off, and then if you can't get your sausage fingers into the case to get it out there is another tool called a screw driver that pops the wrench out with zero effort. Ok, so as far as the tool goes . It's g...

the scale is hard to read and the collar doesn't line up with the intersection where the torque number line intersects the vertical line like other torque wrenches. it's very easy to make this not clique so attention is required to make sure the handle is properly positioned with no pressure on it before tightening. when it does clique its noticeable. My money would have been better applied to a quality torque wrench that does 5 to 75 ft lbs, or if I needed something that could measure under 5...

Great deal at $55

No plastic parts, all metal construction. This wrench was purchased to replace an old and defective craftsman wrench. I've always like Kobalt tools and gave this one a try. I was reading the reviews and found some of them hilarious and others informative. Unlike some, I had no trouble getting the box open and pulling out the wrench. I intend to keep the wrench in the box when not in use. I tested the wrench and it works. The torque wrench is new so I can't comment on its longevity. It will...

Perfect for small bolts in truck engine

Perfect for a precise option for very low torque values.

Can't be opened without destroying the case

Can't find a way to open it without destroying the case. Taught myself to solve a Rubik's cube when I was 12. (best time under a minute) But I'm not ready to make this case my new conquest/hobby. Yes I can get it out, but only if I break the case. The case is designed for the thieves that try to steal tools. Whereas they've made no effort whatsoever to accommodate the customer who actually buys this product. There's a screw with a rounded head, and a "K" stamped on the top surface where you woul...

calibrated in ft-lb at factory

It broke what I was working on when I had it set to the inch pounds required. I used an electronic torque meter to test this torque wrench and found it was torquing to ft-lbs instead of inch-lbs. Every wrench they are selling is set to ft-lbs instead of inch-lbs. Please contact me Kobalt.

Perfect tool

I bought this to help tighten my brake caliper slide pins and brake caliper brackets so they weren’t over tightened and everything to to specs. It’s got a long Handel to help get the bolts tightened at higher torque specs. It’s easy to use and works perfectly.
