Park Tool TW- 5.2 – Ratcheting Click Type Torque Wrench, 7 1/2-Inch
With today’s lightweight components, torque wrench use in the shop is no longer an option – it’s a must for every mechanic. The TW-5.2 is a high quality, ratcheting, click-type torque wrench that accurately measures and applies the proper amount of torque to a component’s threaded fastener(s). With a range of 2-14Nm, the TW-5.2 is designed for the lower torque settings that a shop or consumer would use for proper seat post, seat clamp and handlebar / stem applications. Comes with its own protective case.
NOTE: Torque wrenches are measuring instruments and are not intended for use as a general-purpose ratcheting driver. Do not exceed 14 Nm when using the TW-5.2.

Relief to find one that works 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…
