Default Re: Torque wrenches

Hi rotorwrench, Some years ago the rachet head started slipping. At that time Snap-on did put a kit in it and I had it calibrated. Only used one time for a small job not high ft lbs. Next time probably a year later I went to torque hub nut on my focus 165 lbs it slipped again. This time its the head thats worn out (was the first time too) but not available so they wont do anything about it (5 different snap-on dealers). I've watched for a ratchet to get the head but at this point I think I'm just going to weld it and use a ratchet adaptor where I cannot use it locked.
