Be warned that a torque wrench is only any good if it’s calibrated properly and they are treated well. It should be calibrated from new but they need servicing often which is costly and for cheap wrenches may as well buy a new one.
One of mine has been playing up and not triggering when it clearly should. I snapped bolts on my linkages as a result. Well that and the torque spec Santa Cruz list is stupidly high, but still I knew the feel from having done it plenty of times and thought this can’t be right, seems way too much, oops, snap. Had a few other things I felt clearly should have triggered by now and stopped.
I find my larger torque wrench for the higher stuff is more reliable than the small torque. I don’t trust it now and tend to do small stuff by hand to what feels right.
