scot-ish Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 whats the range? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Steve GT Posted July 4, 2010 Share Posted July 4, 2010 snap on will last you forever.......but they do cost quite a bit. but you pay for quality with these thingsto be honest mate the halfords professional tool range are really good plus they come with a lifetime guarantee i believe so if it ever breaks they will relpace it free of charge. make sure it says professional though as the normal halfords tool range dont have these guarantees lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted February 13, 2011 Author Share Posted February 13, 2011 One quick bump before I buy one this week. I borrowed an electrical Snap On when I build my engine, I don't want to borrow it again so I'll be buying one this week. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lee_EP82 Posted February 13, 2011 Share Posted February 13, 2011 The halfords sound good mate i have a snap on for low torques for engine building which ranges from 5nm upwards, and just use a clarke torque wrench for torquing up wheels from machine mart. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
