I don't see any Precision Instrument electronic torque wrenches.... Can anyone recommend one?

It's 100% necessary for me to clean my tools before putting them away. Slippery tools piss me off. Dirty tools that I can't CLEARLY see the engravings on piss me off.. Dirty hands piss me off.. I know it isn't surgical work, but being able to grip the tool and use it really makes my day-to-day...

So how does Snap-On fix this issue? Does the dealer fix it?

Thank you all for the detailed answers. :) I appreciate all of your opinions and views.

I guess I get what you all are saying, it was merely an observation. I guess the next question would be, why care so much about American made tools? It the quality/craftsmanship better then say German made tools? I constantly hear that "Oh it's made in Germany it's better BMW/Audi are better...

I have a question, Why support "USA Made" tools... when companies like HarborFreight probably employee more people in the USA then these other companies?

"qwater" lol! That accent is real thick.

Nice thank you, What do you think the maximum price for this set is?

Man....Napa Carlyle tools in general are a bit weird IMO. They work, no doubt about it. But they're charging SOOO much for Chinese made tools. The Wera screwdrivers in my experience have been better. Not to mention the warranty on the Carlyle stuff, you HAVE to have the proof of purchase when...

Thank you guys so much for the information! I'm buying Snap-On everything and organizing the sockets i've had in shed forever. So far i've found 1/4" Shallow Easco set. 80% of the Craftsman 1/4" -G- shallow set, a few Snap-On sockets (old school), some Easco sockets, the entire lineup of 3/8"...

Hello, I don't currently have enough posts to post in the wanted section so I figured i'd post here and ask for some part numbers. I've got a complete set of Easco 1/4 Shallow SAE sockets, and i'm looking for a complete set of the 1/4" Deep SAE sockets but I don't know what part numbers to...

I do have several NAPA stores in my area and they do carry the common hand tools which are likely to break. Ratchets, Wrenches, Sockets. I do want the walk in warranty, as I believe the time I break my socket I don't wanna wait a week for the Snap-On guy to come around to get my socket replaced...

Ah okay so I think I found there "flank drive technology" Radial Corners Radial corners move the socket contact points to the flats of the fastener and not the corners. This not only reduces the chance of rounding or stripping the fastener, but provides additional torque on a fastener with...

Hello everyone, Does Carlyle make a flank drive type socket? I know there wrenches have the "anti-slip" technology. Trying to decide which tool brand I wanna go with, and I want all of my tools to be the same brand. Which I know is dumb and meaningless, it's just important to me warranty wise.
