Great 3/8" Torque Wrench,

By joe189
from TX
"I have always used beam type torque wrenches for automotive work but needed something smaller for motorcycles. This torque wrench is easy to set and clicks noticeably at the set torque value."

A must have,

"We all have a complete assortment of 3/8 drive sockets and this torque wrench is a perfect addition. Motorcycle bolts are unforgiving when it comes to aluminum heads so this is cheap insurance that is worth every penny."

Good Deal,
November 18, 2008
By DBVette77
from Lancaster, PA
"This torque wrench seems to be very well built for the money.
I have used it for several tasks on my classic car and it has worked well with no problems encountered. The only criticism I would have is that the numbers on the handle are a little hard to read.

By Christop
"This is a good torque wrench that comes with a nice case. It is well built and is accurate. I have been using it to torque down head bolts and it works great for that job. For the price, it is hard to beat this torque wrench."

Gives professional results,
August 22, 2008
By farmerwannabee
from Rural Pennsylvania
"I didn't have a convenient way of checking the accuracy of my similar style 1/2 inch torque wrench so I'm hoping that it is just as accurate as this one. I checked this one against the more famous brand dial type wrench which is rated at plus or minus 1% so I felt that it was a good standard. This wrench gave very similar results and it's click and lockable setting makes it a whole lot handier.
I'd recommend this tool to anybody for its accuracy and repeatability."

Great precision tool,
August 18, 2008
By MattOB
from Washington, IL
"I've used it on sensitive aluminum threaded bolts on my dirtbike and quad that require specific torque values. Used on my car and truck without any problems. I like the size because it fits in my toolbox and it is easy to get in tight spots to torque. Great tool for basic maintenance or pro jobs. Very reasonable price compared to other brands yet same quality."

Best Bang for the Buck,

By Mark0203
from New England
"First off...there is no plastic on this Torque Wrench...easy to set to the desired foot
pounds...now I can install spark plugs and other torque sensitive parts with peace of mind. The head will reverse rachet...compared to the major tool retailer in America, this one wins hands down!

Torque Wrench,
April 14, 2008
By Bud01057
from Springfield, Ma
"I had my doubts about the wrench because it was such a great deal. I used the wrench going over my motorcycle making sure that everything was torqued to specs. It performed great. Would recommend this to anyone, easy to use. The adjustment setting are easy to see and as I said easy to use. I am just a handyman of sorts doin my own thing at home."

Excellent product,
October 30, 2007
By Daikaiju
from Morganton NC
"Have used this wrench for two torque jobs on my truck in the past year and it has performed great. The last job was all those screws on the differential cover on the rear axle. Because this wrench has a shorter length than many of the other torque wrench brands I was able to use it under the truck with no knuckle scraping! The competitors that make a 3/8 in. torque wrench are ridiculously longer than a 3/8 would need to be I think.
Thanks for this product Northern and thanks for this website where I have found every tool I have needed available online or in your stores. You provide all information on your tools to make researching really easy.

First torque wrench,
October 15, 2007
By ATinNJ
from Bergen County, NJ
"I added an after market 2" receiver to my SUV. The instructions had the torque specs. The wrench couldn't have been easier. I just put my socket on and set the wrench to the appropriated ft/lb setting and started tightening. The wrech clicked and I was off to the next nut. What is great is the click. My old eyes can't read the old fashion metered wrench in close quarters (under the car). Can't wait until something else needs tightening."
