How to choose the best torque wrench

What is a torque wrench? What is it for? And above all, which model to choose from the many available on the market? Read our guide and ranking below, let's try to answer these and other questions to help you find what you need quickly.

Buying Guide

operation
When you need to tighten screws and nuts, for example on your car or bicycle, considerable precision is required, given the importance of the mechanical parts involved. Indeed, it is the manufacturer itself that often indicates what the right torque should be.

The torque wrench serves just this, to tighten the bolts to perfection, as is recommended. With a normal ratchet key it would be impossible. The two tools are very similar but the performance - and the price - of the first are superior.

This does not mean that it is a tool reserved for professionals because the operation is simple and everyone can use it successfully, even the less experienced.

There are basically two types of them: snap-on ones that, when the right torque value is reached, emit a click, generally well audible, and at that point they must be detached. The torque is set by turning the knob down manually before starting to tighten. Other models, on the other hand, are digital and incorporate a display that warns even with light as well as sound signals.

Another type of torque wrench, much less common for the truth, is the so-called quadrant or lancet wrench, which is more difficult to use and which we will not consider in any review below.
Tightening torques

Not all torque wrenches are the same. The first thing you need to check before buying one is to check which tightening torques you can get.

Some models are particularly versatile because they cover a very wide range. Others have very low torques ranging, for example, from 2-3 Nm (Newton per meter) to 20 Nm, others still start at 40 Nm to reach 200 Nm, and so on.
