[QUOTE="01yellercobra, post: 16346496, member: 35549"] I work in calibration and have dealt with quite a few different brands. Surprisingly the harbor freight brands are usually pretty accurate. Tekton and CDI are good as well. I have a CDI in-lb wrench that's a couple years old and works great. FWIW, I have two Craftsman wrenches. One is at least 40 years old and until last year it's held its calibration great. Something broke in the handle and I haven't pulled it apart to see what happened. It's a 10-150 ft-lb. I also have a 25-250 ft-lb that's about 5 years old. It's needed to be adjusted twice and something in the head is now acting up so it doesn't always turn correctly. I'm looking at Husky for my next wrench since I have a Home Depot about a mile from my house. If you really want to be sure do a search for a calibration lab. There should be a couple around you. I think the last general one I worked for charged $20 for a basic three point cal. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
