Draper 3/8 Torque Wrench

I already own a full size 1/2 AF Britool torque wrench but needed something with a lower range for use on my motorcycle. The tool itself is well made at a competitive price plus a make I have heard of. I have a few tools made by Draper that I found to be very useful.

It might seem like an odd criticism but the wrench just seems to be quite short in length - I knew its size when I ordered it but didn't realise that even on mid range settings it needs quite some force to work before the ratchet clicks when you reach the setting. The consequence of this is that you are working close to the engine when using it - I wish it was another 6- 9 inches or so longer to give it the leveridge. I do like the micro adjustment its excellent

Good for general work at higher torques but would not trust on precise work at lower torques.

It's a reasonable tool for not very precise work performs better at higher torque values, on precise work where you need to set exact torques I would not recommenced this tool. It is difficult to know the point of the correct torque setting as the set point indication is very vague, the click is not clear that's if you can hear or feel it at all and it does take time to get used to it. This has been mentioned by a number of users, at higher torques it is better. It is very easy to over torque at lower settings. I did not have confidence in this tool for tightening spark plugs. If you are tightening at lower settings I would say that you should under toque and workup to the correct value in small step to avoid over torqueing but really you should not have to do this. On the face of it is a reasonably priced torque wrench, but an expensive mistake considering that you cannot have confidence at lower settings. Invest in a better torque wrench for delicate work where mistakes can be costly.Read full review

No toolbox should be without one

These are a quality set of torque wrenches as you would expect from Draper. They cover all the settings you would generally need for any engine or DIY project that requires torque settings. They come in a quality hardened plastic case so that you can keep them clean and dust free and the instruction sheet contains all the necessary information you would need including conversion chart if you needed one.Read full review

Excellent Tourque wrench for the price

works as intended. One negativ thing. The white text for setting tourque disappears if the ratchet gets a little oili :-)

Very good tools.

Expected the torque wrenches to be of subpar quality due to the price. Was very surprised at the quality. Tools doesn’t feel cheaply made, scale is very easy to rear & understand.
Well worth the money especially considering there’s two.Read full review

Draper small reversible torque wrench

Small and manageable. Now I can use this to tighten all my bolts correctly. Have used a bigger version for cylinder head bolts etc. but this one can do 80% of bolts and act as a wrench as well.
Perfect for price.Read full review

Superb quality for the D-I-Y Mechanic

Very good quality and in a sturdy case. Not too large to get into confined spaces. A crucial tool for tightening nuts on a motorcycle.
