on this snap-on item, it says "Does not include square drive dimension."

I'm not sure but 1 1/4" thick not counting the anvil seems excessive. Does it not?

Good question; it does say that it is a 3/8" drive torque wrench, however! Maybe they are referring to how much the drive part sticks out?

The height or thickness of the head is 1-1/4" plus the length of the square drive. That is the older bulky style of torque wrench that is more accurate, but less compact.
