What’s a good torque wrench to get?
I want to replace the spark plugs in my car and I’m apparently going to have to torque them to 30Nm. #diy #tools
Split beam torque wrenches are where it’s at, especially for home use where it’s going to sit for long periods of time. Split beam is easier to set, and you don’t have to leave it at 0 when not in use. I have ruined many traditional clickers because I forgot to set it back to 0 for storage, then it sits like that for months.
They aren’t as cheap as a traditional clicker, but they are so much better.
