I just bought this torque wrench and I am impressed. I would say that it is better looking than snap on and don't get me started with price comparison. 😬
Someone should teach this gentleman how to use a torque wrench properly, seeing as the video is supposed to showcase the operation of the product. The technique and hand placement used here would certainly yield mis-torqued fasteners.
Nice, only video out explaining anything about this torque wrench. Only one question, does it take batteries and if so what kind? Also does it have saved torque settings, say I want to set profiles for certain torque specs.
I own a lot of GearWrench tools; great design and quality. I own 3 of the GearWrench torque wrenches (1/4, 3/8, 1/2") and I hate them. When using them in areas where you can't view the display there's no way to know if the torque point is accurate without the snap of the tool. The sound and vibration either leaves you at less than or greater than the desired torque. It would be nice to have a physical snap built-in. Do not leave batteries in them for an extended period of time; one of mine corroded inside leaving the wrench dead, which I replaced. I'm willing to sell my torque wrenches if anyone is interested; like NEW. BTW, The instruction is good, the music is so annoying, sounds like a cat periodically meowing.
I did a head gasket today torqued bolt to 90 degrees when I released the torque wrench the number went from 90 to 88 can someone tell me why is my torque wrench defective??
The trouble with electronic torque wrenches is when you most want them the batteries fail and you dont have any or the shops are closed! In england thats a bummer as everywhere has traffic you cant park and just nip in and get them and its a mission a manual is far better. I got a Snap On and the batteries are always flat.
the only thing I do not like about these torque wrenches is if the angle you've set exceeds the max torque rating for the wrench the display with say something like overtorque or overload and you can;t get to the desired angle...

I’m loving these new tools y’all have never buy snap on again gear wrench for life
You explained your product very well.
Awesome video, thanks for the links to the products, this video was a big help
The music has a cat meowing sound. Really confused me because I thought it was my cat and I don't have a cat.
Purchased this wrench, it's absolutely beautiful in person.
I'm trying to find out how to put the batteries in.

Hey mate, It uses AA Batteries. It can also store up to 10 pre set settings.
@@gearwrenchaustralia5405 great, that's good to know. Thanks for the response!

I totally agree these are not built for auto techs! next to impossible to use on a vehicle!
What is a different about setting beetwen 85078 and 120xp. I know abot 100 and 135Nm but is any other different with setting etc?
Thx
Has Gearwrench got anything equivalent quality to SnapOn and Norbar in digital?
Mine doesn’t beep at all tho😢

Dies jt do reverse torque and whats the angle of the flex head
How does it know when your starting and stopping your angle ?

Great content. Thumbs down for having music in an instructional video
Can it set target 1 n-m ?
what are the NM ranges , Highest and Lowest ?
the music on this vid is horrific! hahaaha
So is the accent!
I was disappointed on the flex head movement. I understand it would probably alter the torque readings but damn
Im disappointed the 1/4 does not go below 20inch lbs

Really? Seems like a big flaw
@@Jursaw found out my boss's $700ish snap on torque wrench has the same flaw..
@@userpike well then theres no loss in getting this one
…..is there a cat meowing somewhere?!
Music really sucks when you're trying to listen!!!!
