Park ToolRatcheting Click Type Torque Wrench

I've owned a lot of tourque wrences, but since I'm not a mechanic I always just bought cheap ones and never cared about quality. Then I got both of the Park Tool tourque wrences and realised that the reason you use one it to get the tourque to factory settings and not over. Without this tourque wrench, you're guessing how much to tighten that bolt on your $400 bars. Don't risk it, know what the settings are.

Definitely worth $100 best torque wrench I've had. With the exception of its larger version. I use this wrench a lot working on E-Scooters. It has clear indexing, a better torsion click even at the lower torques and there is no need to tighten a locking screw.

This is a quality product. Compact enough for my travel tool box and simple to use.

I tried using the torque wrenches from harbor freight and home depot but they didn't seem to be torquing correctly. I will have to get them calibrated and see what is going on, luckily none of my parts snapped from trying to use them...However, I finally just got the park tool version and it's perfect for all the common finer jobs like seatpost, handlebar, etc. Most other torque wrenches you find are on the upper end of torques mostly for auto parts. It was hard for me to find one that was specific for the bike components I needed.I also got the additional park tool socket and bit set because even though I have alot of tools/bits, I didn't have a socket allen set and even then it was hard to keep everything together. Now it's all ready to go whenever I need to work on my bikes.I didn't enjoy spending the money but honestly it made my build so much easier, confidence inspiring, and relieving, So for me, it was worth it and I wish I didn't spend extra money on the other wrenches. The park tool is also the easiest & smoothest to adjust of the 3 I have.However, now that I'm more familiar with torque conceptually/practically, I think I would prefer a beam wrench where you can actively see what torque is being applied on the dial. These have the benefit of actually seeing what you're doing, whether it's out of calibration, and they tend to be cheaper and easier to maintain.

I wanted to thank the seller for very prompt service. First one stopped working correctly after about a month. Got in touch with seller that responded very quickly, sent out a replacement that I had in a couple days. Highly recommendThe tool works but not the most distinctive click when reaching the specified torque. I’ve worked with torque wrenches regularly when I was in the Air Force and this pales in comparison to the Snap On I used in those days.

This is a very good torque wrench for light torque settings on bicycles. Park will also repair or recalibrate if ever needed.

This is an excellent tool. The weight and all ergonomic aspects, the bit fit and guaging, and the mechanical aspects all impress and help to get the job done when your bike needs just the right torque.

The media could not be loaded. I own both the TW-5 and TW-6 torque wrenches and thought I would point out that you really either need both of these wrenches or you will probably want one torque wrench with a longer continuous range. The TW-5 has a range of 26-132 inch pounds, the TW-6 has a range of 88-530 inch pounds. Meaning the TW-5 is going to be great for smaller projects like tightening bolts on brakes, shifters, etc. For bottom bracket, pedal, or crank work you are going to need to go with the larger TW-6 wrench as a procedure like replacing a Bottom Bracket will require anywhere from 450-600 inch pounds of torque.Both of these tools come with nice hard plastic clamshell cases and instructions. The TW-5 comes with a 1/4 to 3/8 drive converter as it is a 1/4" drive ratcheting torque wrench.Remember to dial these back to the minimum torque setting to preserve and maintain the calibration - and maybe most importantly don't loan them to anyone who doesn't know how to use a precision instrument with care... ;-)So far these have both held up nicely and are a wonderful addition for my tool collection. They fully meet my bike repair/mechanical tinkering requirements. After too many stripped/broken bolts and parts, these will pay for themselves really quickly.
