Teng 1292AGEP 40-210nm 1/2-inch Torque Wrench Drive

Only just received this torque wrench ordered after my very old one started playing up. Went for Teng as they're a quality brand. Not used it yet but have given 5 stars for ease of use and accuracy as I'm that confident of it's quality.My only criticism is that the Nm scale takes precedence over lbft. The Nm scale is in whole numbers whereas the lbft one is in odd numbers with decimals. I'm old fashioned and have always used lbft. This is not a real problem as it's very easy to convert the latter into Nm by just multiplying by 1.35 and then using the Nm scale.It's well worth torquing wheel nuts to the manufacturers specification as this ensures the brake disc won't be warped by over tightening or uneven tightening. Garages always over torque them with their air powered rattle guns making it difficult to impossible to undo them at the roadside in the event of a puncture. Using torque wrench to do them up mitigates this. You can also use anti-seize on them if you reduce the manufacturer's torque figure by 30%. You'll also find virtually every fastener on a car or motorbike has a manufacturer specified torque setting so a tool like this is invaluable for an amateur mechanic like me.

There’s a reason why a lot of people look to Teng Tools for torque-wrenches - they’re accurate , very reasonably priced and well-made . Obviously they’re not as accurate as some high-end digital torque-wrenches, but they’re also five times the price - and for automobiles , Teng is more than adequate .

Perfect. Great product at a super price

Supports up to 180lbft if I remember correctly. I bought it to torque my wheel nuts which require 100lbft so this is just fine. It's nice and heavy, well made and easy to adjust in either imperial or metric whatever you prefer.It comes in a nice plastic orange case, just remember to wind the torque screw back to zero when storing it or not using it as to not wear it out when not in use.

I bought this just to check the wheel nuts, it's well made and easy to use and does the job it's intended for.

The Teng 1292AGEP 40-210nm 1/2-inch Torque Wrench feels well made and in my opinion is very good value for money when compared to similar offerings from more expensive brands.I've already used the wrench on a number of occasions without fault, and whilst I wont be using it everyday I don't see any reason why it wouldn't be suitable for a professional mechanic.The wrench comes packaged in a plastic storage case, which is nicely labelled up allowing for quick selection if you have a number of wrenches stored together.

The Teng 1292AGEP Torque Wrench Drive is an excellent piece of kit, robust and easy to use. Very easy scale to read and set which should present absolutely no problem to anyone. Useful over-torque degree setting too.

Easy to use. Feels sturdy, feels like it should last a lifetime, but I only use it four times a year.
