What Customers Are Saying
The Kobalt torque wrench offers a range of torque settings and is easy to use, making it suitable for smaller, light-duty tasks. However, some users reported issues with accuracy, particularly at lower torque levels, and a few experienced the wrench breaking bolts. Additionally, the new packaging design was criticized as difficult to open without damaging the case.

Not What I Needed
My oversight, but I thought the product settings and functionality were much below my needs, and that it could have been clearer \, especially online where I purchased before picking up at the store

Good torque wrench for small jobs.
Would RecommendIts the perfect size for smaller jobs, but it is hard to read the torque setting.

This is better than my old Snap On torque wrench!
Would RecommendThis thing is a beast. Needed to torque the beads on my rims to exactly 27, and it worked perfect. Verified by my brothers digital torque wrench.

Not good
I bought this to torque my Chevy 350 motor it doesn't register the click everytime I broke bolts in the intake because of this my neighbor has a better brand ban I checked the head bolts seams they were to tight with this kobolt brand had to retap the intake holds don't buy this it you need it to be accurate this is not it's cheap for a reason I'm sorry I bought this messed up tool coused me more headache than I needed
KOBALT VS CRAFTSMAN
Would RecommendInitially bought the Craftsman cause it was in special, rode my motorcycle from Tampa to Charlestown (NC) to do a complete overhaul, the craftsman ratchet mechanism failed on the first 56lb-ft (over 50% capacity) total garbage, switched to KOBALT on 65lb-ft rear axle tightened like a breeze! (Better construction, better finish, betterquality!) do spend the 10-15USD more, it is worth the KOBALT

Didn’t last
Would Not RecommendLasted a little over a year with intermittent use.
Works well for me
Would RecommendCompact size, easy to set torque, satisfying click. If I was going to be using it day in and day out I’d be a digital one though
