I have a Mac TWK8250 torque wrench. The torquing mechanism works fine but periodically, the ratcheting part won't work and I'll have to take the wrench apart to fix it. Does anyone know if there is a rebuild kit for this ratchet still being sold? I've seen some SK kits for the 1/2 inch drive Tuff 1 that look similar, but I don't know if they would work. I think part of the problem is that the spring in the head does not have the slight "V" in it that I've seen in the SK kits and the rolled pin that sits in the spring and changes of the ratcheting mechanism may be a little too short.

The pawl has 9 teeth, by the way.

Thanks in advance

I have now found out that the head on this wrench was made by Danaher and that it was no longer supported beginning in 1995.

Has anyone got a lead for a Danaher 1/2" repair kit for this kind of ratchet head?
