lol you got me there

It was bothering me that the calibration sheet included in my 1/2 drive showed tests at 50/100/150, but the manual with it said that the accuracy be verified between 20% and 100% of the *range*. 20% of a range between 25 and 250 would be 70. Looking up the actual asme standard indicates that was...

I just cleaned! I'll see if I can find an introduction page.

I get it and apologize that I didn't give you much to go off of. No worries.

I'd guess they are identical or one is a copy of the other based on this, and I appreciate pointing out the thread direction!

Yes it's between 20% and 100% of full scale on these and I checked at various settings. This one in particlalar is a 25-250 and is pushing the 10% mark. I believe it is rated at 3% tolerance.

No. I did not ask the "what do I need to do here" that broadly. Me knowing it's out of calibration has very little to do with a simple confirmation on that picture being a jamb nut. Obviously these are able to be calibrated, but as the method is different depending on design, I didn't want to...

I have another snap on torque wrench that I recently acquired, a brand new digital torque adapter, and a digital scale. The snap on and the adapter are spot on with each other. 51.0 lbs of weight confirmed via digital scale calculated to the length of the handle of the pictured torque wrench...

Can you do anything to help me visualize that? I'm having trouble seeing how either or would be of any benefit at the tip of the socket.

Best advice is not to do nothing. It is out of calibration by around 10-11% which is far beyond OK. It needs calibrated. The age was more in the context of "these are good torque wrenches" not related to the need to be calibrated. There's a place that will do it locally but it is over $90 per...

Good afternoon! I have a pair of micrometer torque wrenches that I need to calibrate. Please see the attached picture. What do I need to do here? Is that a jamb nut that I need to loosen and then run the allen bolt down to add tension to spring? These are both Husky branded torque wrenches but...
