Bought a cheap torque wrench for a Cessna 172 job and it cost me a whole day
I needed to do a wheel bearing job on a 172 and grabbed a new $60 torque wrench from the local tool store. It clicked fine on the test, but after I buttoned everything up, I had a bad feeling and re-checked with my old Snap-on. The new one was off by almost 15 foot-pounds on the axle nut. Had to tear it all apart and start over, which wasted about 8 hours of my Saturday. I should have just waited and used the good tool from the start. Anyone have a decent mid-range torque wrench brand they actually trust for airframe work?
