Gray tools 3/4 torque wrench

[RandyVan]

Hey guys, my first post here so take it easy on me.
I am looking at a second hand Gray tools 3/4 torque wrench, it is almost brand new, USA made.
Anyone have any experience with these? I run a service truck so it won't have a real easy life.
It is a Gray 84600 model.
I have always used a Snap on 3/4 in the past so that's what I am accustomed to. This one shows it has only 24 teeth, seemed a little low to me
Thanks

Damn 46” I wonder how much it weighs!

also only 24 tooth not that you need more but just makes me wonder what the handle swing would be

not great at math tbh but I’ll try it

360 degrees in a circle divided by 24 teeth is 15 degrees per tooth ratchet

the radius of the circle is 46 inches for the handle

15 degrees is 1/24 of the rotation around the circle

so maybe it’s just 46 divided by 24 is about 2 inches per ratchet click. so you got to move the handle 2 inches at the end in order to get a single ratchet click

not saying it’s bad or nothing just was wondering how it worked out

46" radius gives 92" diameter. Multiply by Pi to get 289" circumference. Divide by the number of teeth (24) to get 12" of movement per click, as near as dammit.
