hiro Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 (edited) Anyone use one of these as a torque wrench substitute? I'm kinda interested in a 1/4 inch version because a beam style can be hard to read and the click style, from what I've read, is prone to problems in that size. https://www.revzilla.com/motorcycle/bike-master-digital-torque-wrench-adapter Edited October 17, 2017 by hiro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2talltim Posted October 17, 2017 Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 HF sells one too, have been curious myself on how well they work. https://m.harborfreight.com/12-in-drive-digital-torque-adapter-68283.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hiro Posted October 17, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 17, 2017 The range for the 1/4 inch is 2.2 to 22.1 foot-pounds, which converts to 26.4 to 265.2 inch-pounds. Starts a little high? Maybe just hack a beam style wrench? They start at zero at least. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-7lOLeaqYaI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
