Beta Utensili torque wrenches?

[marlinspike]

Beta used to be a brand that had great torque wrenches at lower prices than the rest. Is this still the case, or have they outsourced? I seem to find conflicting info.

they cost about the same as britool and proto in this side of the world (Asia), last i saw still made in Italy.

great tools, but they are weak with imperial sizes.

That's because imperial sizes are terrible and should never be used

I just know my old Beta torque wrenches (I bought them new about 7 years ago) tested to be about 1-2% accuracy and were much cheaper than Snap-On/Hazet/Stahlwille here in the US. you can't get Beta in the US anymore, but they can be ordered from England.
