Pros & Cons
Pros
This is 10 times nicer than my old craftsman. They are solid sturdy and hold there calibration. Quite a deal for the home mechanic/hobbyist.
The selector for the forward/reverse ratchet is positive- but must be positioned fully to one side or the other. The click is satisfying and the torque is fairly easy to set.
Other than minor cosmetic differences, they're pretty much the same product. Comes in a nice case with a cdi label stating “a snap on company’. Company that makes them is actually a subsidiary of snap-on.
This torque wrench is solid and performs nicely. Much better than all of the digital junk out there.
Cons
To not work is adding insult to injury. Also - so much plastic. Do not buy.
Highlights
Quality
Awesome quality product at a great price
The quality of this torque wrench is what i would expert for professional use and results
Other than minor cosmetic differences theyre pretty much the same product
As you adjust the torque the handle doesnt quite line up properly with the scale but its not a significant issue
Price
Well worth the price if you use one regularly
It is still a good buy reliable and at a reasonable price
Competitiveness
Id been looking for a highquality clicking torque wrench to use whenever i rotate my tires and this one fills the bill
Has all of the accuracy and piece of mind of a snapon at like half the price
It even says a snapon product on the wrench itself
It was the kind of quality id expect from a snapon company

No its not as high as a snap on or mac but in a world of ever increasing junk tools you would think a 160 torque wrench from a snap on brand would at least not be missing a assembly screw
