They both do offer many measuring formats including in in-lbs, nm , ft-lbs and a few more (six total measuring formats). the 3/8" starts registering at 7 in-lbs the 1/2" does not register until 30 in-lbs The numbers on the package that says 5.9 and 25 ft-lbs are BS they measure accurately lower than that, harbor freight wants you to buy multiple so they BS the numbers a bit... if I could do it over again i would only buy the 1/2" because i never need to use them for under 30 in lbs

Practicing for a few minutes with a click wrench on the digital adaptor I learned that technique is important. My 30 year old 40 - 200 in-lb SnapOn wrench is plus or minus one inch pound full range if I use the proper technique. My 5 - 80 ft-lb Pittsburgh is especially sensitive to technique below about 25 ft-lb. My fifty year old 20 - 150 ft-lb Craftsman is the least sensitive technique of all my torque wrenches. I have a dual beam 0 - 200 in-lb beam torque wrench that's 40 years old that's dead nuts as close as I can read the needle on the beam. My take away: If you have one of these gadgets, use it to practice with the wrench for a few clicks if being close really matters.

Thanks for testing. Looks like the 3/8 is less than 1/2 a pound off on the lower end. I know it matters more on the lower end but I think I can live with that. Ive stripped a couple bolts recently with some old torque wrenches. Im interested to see if they are accurate. I had ordered some after market parts since oem was no longer available for a very old honda car. The bolts stripped when tightened to 30pound spec. I think the non oem parts were poorly made but now Im questioning my torque wrench. Im going to buy the 3/8 and 1/2 version to get an idea how accurate my torque wrenches are

So I bought the 58706 model. Most things I am torquing are 30 to 110 inch pounds. Its range says 25 to 250 foot pounds. So what is the inch pounds range of this device. Do you just multiply foot lbs by 12 and that is the range. Which would make the inch pounds reading basically worthless, or does it read lower inch pound readings. I haven't opened it deciding if I want to exchange it or not.

Personally I would go with a split beam or click for lugs. Digital torque wrenches can be tricky because u won’t be able to see the display, only the higher priced ones have leds on the sides. A digital torque adapter would be better. But I still prefer a mechanical torque wrench for that application. Happy new year!

Thanks for the recommendations! It's really helpful especially for a newbie like me who is just about to start with lug nuts as a home DIYer. Was debating between the ICON click wrench and the digital one and went for the digital one w/ the 25% coupon but then saw the torque adapter review and really made me double think if that is a cheaper route in general. Now debating if I should return the digital and wait for next 25% coupon to get the click wrench instead.. ha. But thanks none the less! Appreciate all the honest reviews that are insightful! Happy New Year!!

I was going to use it to torque some oil pan bolts to 18 ft lbs, but I’m a little weary to do it because it’s not advertised to go that low. What’s your thoughts?

I have watched and rewatched this excellent test video, but it's not clear how the target torque is indicated. Does solid red mean stop? Does flashing red mean approaching? What does the whining sound indicate? I am asking because it seems like you are pushing past the light indicator changes to make the numbers match, but I won't be able to see the numbers in all applications or positions, so it is important to understand how to interpret torque based on lights alone. Is that possible? Or would a click wrench be better in 'blind' applications? I still have an old beam torque wrench and it is kind of stressful watching that needle approach exact torque at awkward angles and was looking for something better.
@Tools-Tested
@Tools-Tested Жыл бұрын
Thanks! Best approach is a click style in my opinion, you can just apply a constant force till the click. Digital wrenches are tricky because you need to slow down and can easily over torque, defiantly when you cant see the display. The leds on this flash faster and then go solid just past the torque, over by 1In Lb I found. At the same time the buzzer is also sold.

Thanks! That's definitely useful data. I have the new 1/2". It works well. I've been thinking of getting the 3/8" version. What I want to use the 3/8" for is verifying my low torque range micrometer adjust click wrenches. The 1/2" doesn't go low enough for my 40 - 200 in-lb (Used a lot on ATVs) or my 2 - 20 Nm wrench (which I use often on chainsaws). Based on your test results, I think I'll wait on the 3/8" because it's least accurate where I need it the most. The 1/2" is considerably more accurate.

You are correct normally below 20% the accuracy drops off. I haven’t tested the 3/8 down that low. I would expect the accuracy around 6%. If you need something more accurate probably go with the 1/4.

@stevensam8834 The Torque Test Channel recently did a video on myths about torque wrenches. One of the key tests he did was do adapter or extensions make a difference in actual torque application vs reading. It was fascinating, there is a bit of math, but nothing too hard. Basically as long as you are in line with where you're applying the torque it won't matter. However as soon as you change angles, or add or subtract leverage, it will change the torque applied vs what is set on the tool. It's very consistent however with what happens when. So go watch the video to learn about how the rules apply...

So when in peak it will display the highest reading when applying torque, trace/track it gives you the live readout. So if you go up to 50 and let some force of the adapter peak will show 50 while trace would show under 50 so something more like 40 Hope this make sense it can be a little confusing.

Really depends, if you're using it a lot probably not.

How do you manage 1000 test cycles for each wrench? Your arm must get pretty tired. 😂

I bought this 3/8 adapter, but will be returning it for a regular clicker. I guess if you already have regular torque wrenches, this makes a great addition but as an only torque wrench, it's not versatile in tight spaces.

Sadly they currently don't ship outside the US. This is a major complaint by people who live in Canada as well. That being said some sellers on Ebay will ship Quinn to Germany. Also Wisretec sells almost the identical unit model numbers 3/8 BDA3-135 1/2 BDA4-200 3/4 BDA4-340

I own the 3/8" and 1/2" and they are VERY accurate... I calibrate my pittsburg click torque wrenches with them... not cheap but these are very improved... the adapters were not great these multiple versions are much better.

Yeah or you can use large breaker bars when you are doing higher-torque fasteners. It's nice to do head studs (120-130 lb-ft) with a longer bar since you get a smoother, easier pull than a standard length torque wrench.
@DiligentDave1966
@DiligentDave1966 Жыл бұрын
@@DaveScottADV This makes sense. People also say that the handle sleeve sometimes moves on click style torque wrenches, which can change the torque setting. This won’t happen if you use the torque adapter on a ratchet or breaker bar.

How do you know the harbor freight one isn’t the more accurate one and your snap on is off??? I get it price difference harbor freight is not junk like it used to be I have been to there booths at shows they really stepped up their game image testing same equipment with the opposite names on them it’s crazy what we pay for with the name at the end everything is made in china except aerospace and some gun manufacturing
