About this deal

Its spec was similar in terms of its light weight and length, and its quoted torque figure allied to a smooth, revvy brushless motor made using it a pleasure. If you weigh 150 pounds and stand on the end of a two-foot wrench attached to a lug nut, you’d deliver 300 foot-pounds of torque. But despite claiming ‘only’ 240Nm it performed impressively well, not least on the hub nut, which has proven difficult for some past wrenches. We also looked at ease of use, whether the wrench could measure in both directions and looked for metric and imperial scales. Otherwise, you won’t be able to connect the socket to the torque wrench and you won’t be able to use it!

If your vehicle is missing more than one lug nut we highly recommend leaving your vehicle where it’s at until you can get new lug nuts out there. For example, most cordless drill/drivers produce about 50 foot-pounds of torque, and the average impact driver delivers about 125 foot-pounds.If you need a torque wrench for smaller bolts and jobs, then the BullTools Torque Wrench Set is an outstanding choice for you to consider. One of the stand-out features of an impact wrench is the substantial level of torque output you can achieve.

Another great wrench, with its brushless motor producing very good performance regardless of the tasks presented. We also came up with comprehensive reviews for each one, that way you know exactly what you’re looking at and which one is best for you. It does come with a calibration certificate and instructions that could be kept in the case, but the ratchet has just 24 teeth.Like the Halfords pair, this comes in a foam insert for storing in a tool chest but, unlike them, there’s no additional plastic case. Still, with this larger maximum torque it needed a larger design to give you the leverage to get there.

Of course, you can take all the guesswork out of the situation by figuring out what size lugs are on your vehicle in the first place. As such, it can be used not only for medium-torque fasteners like car lug nuts, but for higher-torque nuts such as those on trailer hitches and rear wheel bearings.

Finally, it has a soft grip handle that makes it more comfortable to use, but it also is a bit harder to clean than the solid steel alloy handles that the other options have.

Despite the name, this is only a little more than 27 inches long, but the extra length over most rivals is welcome for its 345Nm maximum. But not only is it a little smaller, but it’s another 4-way lug wrench that doesn’t have any advanced features. But although light (even with the big battery) and short, it couldn’t match the performance of new rivals costing less. If you don’t have the sockets at your home to help you figure out the size you can do one of two things.Air-powered options are often preferred by professional tradesmen and mechanics, because the power supply is unlikely to run out halfway through your job.
