What Customers Are Saying
The torque wrench received mixed reviews. Some found it effective for light-duty tasks, while many reported issues with accuracy and reliability. Customers complained the wrench lacked a clear, audible click when the desired torque was reached, leading to overtightening and damage. Several also struggled with the difficult-to-open packaging design. Overall, the wrench may be suitable for basic, occasional use but is not recommended for critical applications or heavy-duty work requiring precision and reliability.

Would RecommendI've had this torque wrench for about three weeks now, and I am using it to maintain my motorcycle and bicycles. As soon as it arrived, I compared it against two other torque wrenches, one that also (like this one) works in both directions, and another that only works on right-hand threads. The new torque wrench matched the others perfectly at a couple of different torque settings (in both directions when compared to the one that also works on left and right threads). I especially like that thi...

Unfortunate Buy
Would Not RecommendNice looking tool, heavy duty; probably works properly right-side up but this Torque Wrench didn't work as required . . . which was "upside-down" under my Big Dog Mower Deck changing the grass cutting blades. Upside down, there was "NO" discernable "click" to notify the user that the Torque setting of 118 FP had been achieved. The writer never heard the "click" from the Torque Wrench causing "over torque" of the cutting blade bolts under the mower deck; end result caused mower deck belt failure ...

seems good for the money
Would RecommendThe fit and finish seem to be very good; not as nice as my Mac torque wrenches, but better than i expected for a $65 torque wrench. The “click” sounds and feels very positive; even at the lower ranges. I haven’t used it much, so i cant speak to longevity or relibility, but it’s good so far. My only complaint is that it only has ft/lb markings. N-m markings on the other side would be nice, so i dont have to convert N-m to ft/lb when im working on metric stuff and given metric values.

Good Tool
Would RecommendThis is a tool that does what it was designed to do and does it well. The price is not obnoxious and it’s easy to use. However, the packaging needs to be better secured to better thwart would-be thieves.

Torque wrench
Would RecommendThis worked prefect in torquing nuts down in a tight area. I bought this torque wrench because it went up to 250 inch lbs. Overall I am happy with this itemThe rubber cap on the end keep coming off.
Worked Great - Until it didn't - NO RECOURSE
Would Not RecommendGreat wrench until it came apart unprovoked. The two machine screws that hold the head together went flying when I opened it up one day. Always stored in the box it came it, cared for like all of our nice calibrated tools. Took it back to Lowes, the wouldn't warranty it, said call Kobalt. Mind you, I am just asking for replacement screws - if you can't give me screws, replace the wrench. Kobalt wouldn't warranty it or provide parts, they said call JS Technologies. JS Technologies took a week and...
