Questions and Answers for Husky 3/8 in. and 1/2 in. Drive Torque Wrench Set (2-Piece)

A:  Christi, No, this wrench is not considered a Certified Torque Wrench. This wrench includes a factory calibration sheet showing it is tested during assembly per ANSI/ASME standards, but it is not compliant with the NIST standards for a Certified Torque Wrench.

A:  Earl, this wrench is not calibrated for use in the left hand or counter-clockwise direction.

A:  QA, For the extension function one should measure the length from the center of the drive tange to the middle point of the handle (where force should be applied) for the most accurate calculation.

A:  JBaz, yes, this wrench includes the factory calibration records. We warranty calibration for 90 days from purchase.

A:  Wmonk, The accuracy of a Mircormeter Torqure wrench is only tested in the upper 80% of the scale. For the 3/8 inch Wrench that would be 20-100 ft/lbs. Below 20 ft./lbs. the 'click' is often very light and not always felt by the user. Therefore we recommend this wrench be used in the advertised range of 20 to 100 ft./lbs.

A:  Guss, yes, this torque wrench has a primary scale in ft./lbs. and a secondary scale in Newton Meters.

A:  Carlitos, No, This wrench is only designed and calibraited toi be used in the Clockwise or right-hand direction. We do offer our 3/8 in. Drive Electronic Torque Wrench (20 ft./lbs. to 100 ft./lbs) that is calibrated in both the Clockwise and Counter Clockwise directions. Internet # 314020528, Model # H3DETW.

A:  Should be +/- in the torque spec. 16 in lb less in a car I think is not an issue. Hope you find one.

A:  Airman, you are correct, Husky does have a slight gap in our torque range from 16.67 ft/lbs. (200 in. lbs.) to 20 ft./lbs. We will look into this for future development.
