“My TW-5.2 has barely been used and always stored unloaded, but it already seems to either be out of calibration or broken. I cannot get it to audibly click anymore in either direction, and even the tactile break is unreliable. It seems to still work in one direction, and completely does not occur in the other direction. I've probably used this wrench only about 20 times in its 2 to 3 year lifetime. And I'm not testing it at 2nm. I found out that the wrench became effectively useless when I was tightening some 6nm stem bolts. There's no way that this tool, which is advertised for use in the 2nm to 14nm range, can be unreliable at 6nm. If this is considered the "low" end of the range where the tool is unreliable, then this tool should be advertised for use with a much narrower range, like 8 to 14, not 2 to 14, where 2 to 6 is unusable. I am extremely disappointed. Only now do I realize that this torque wrench only has a one year warranty. I should have paid attention when I bought it. I expected Park Tool's reputation would have me covered, but maybe even Park Tool's own engineering recognizes that this tool is unreliable and therefor cannot be warrantied for a period longer than a much cheaper generic torque wrench.”

Hello Leon, Sorry to hear about your poor experience. Please submit a warranty on this wrench. We have a 1 year warranty on these but if it was not right from the get go then we will make it right. Thanks, T.

“This is the tool to have for almost every torque spec on a bike. I'm a beginner bike mechanic and I use this tool on every bike. I quickly realized I needed one at home for my own bikes. It's easy to use and accurate.”

“Ls torquimetros que he usado gran parte tienen sonido al llegar a los nm, pero estos no generan ninguno y al no haberlo por poco e escapado de romper algunos pernos , esto lo que no me agrada de este producto y no lo recomendaría en ese sentido si trabajas bajo presión , se trata de optimizar tiempo no alargarla ahora toca ir despacio y viendo si genera algún doblado para saber que he llegado a los nm , que frustración”
