My old Craftsman torque wrench broke after a few years. That is, the adjustment ring didn't seem to have any impact on the actual setting anymore, you could still turn bolts with it though.
I thought Craftsman had a life-time guarantee on their tools??? LyleH
from what I've read at slickdeals (after posting here), these have 90 day warranty only. some hode depot (Husky?) torque wrenches are cheaper and have livetime warranty.
Also it seems to be important to set this back to minimum torque once done. if you leave it set at high value, it will weaken and not be calibrated anymore.
read more at slickdeals. as always YMMV.
