I had this discussion a few years ago with my Snap-On dealer; They will charge for rebuilding the ratchet assembly when they recalibrate the torque wrench.
This is because if the ratchet slips when they are doing the calibration it raises hell with the machine! At that point they are out of the recalibration business until they get it repaired. The recalibration is free, the parts you will pay for. Not a bad deal all things considered.

I saw the past posts on torque screwdrivers, but I'm looking for a wrench calibrated to the 100-150 in-lbs range. Jason Szumlanski Fafco Solar _____ No virus found in this message.
