[QUOTE="ozziedog, post: 626609, member: 13810"] All torque wrenches should be tested periodically depending on whether you use them a lot or if you have accidentally left your torque wrench on a high setting. It is good practice to release the tension on the spring in the wrench before you put it away. There is no such thing as a spring based torque wrench or a clicking torque wrench that does not need adjusting every so often the only one that doesn’t need adjusting is the beam style old torque wrench as there are no moving parts. That’s possibly the reason that most wrenches have adjustment on them. There’s quite a few ways to test them, you can go on you tube and see several. Most use a large weight suspended at a twelve inch point or suspend a couple of litres or gallons of water in containers as that’s so easy to adjust. :mrgreen: Ozziedog,,,,,,,,, sorry to be controversial :mrgreen: [/QUOTE]
