Pros & Cons
Pros
The spring-loaded collar positively locks the wrench to whatever setting you choose. The wrench itself comes in a blow mold case with the wrench itself inside.
You can lock the ratchet. If you turn it a bit too far in either direction, it locks and prevents ratcheting. My only pet peeve is the directional control lever.
These are built like a tank and come with their individual factory test readout. The unit has both inch pound and newton meter scales which is nice. My qa dept. Came up with a calibration certificate.
Cdi takes pride in their products and it shows with accuracy and durability. Even my coworkers in the shop are impressed. It is very well made.
Cons
The wrench was defective out of the box. The toggle lever that's used to switch between forward and reverse is loose. It is also not particularly easy to read the scales.
Highlights
Quality
I appreciate the quality of this torque wrench
The quality of the tool is good and the finish looks like itll hold up well
Before rescrewing them i screwed them with the nontorque adjustable wrench until i felt slight resistance
Can not imagine how spending any more would realistically result in a better performing product
Price
And for the price you cannot beat it
6 i still hope that the price would be lowered for more popular use
Competitiveness
A good value in the current price point and built in the usa with imported parts
In terms of fit and finish it is virtually identical to a snapon torque wrench i own which costs nearly 4times as much
