Other Torque wrench

and then there's the worn threads where steel bolts go into aluminium . . . ..

I agree on always slackening the TW spring when no in use. Most stuff is by feel these days, but had to learn that the hard way in my yoof.

Got that but not sure my breaker bar can handle the torque. It only has a pin at the top holding the end on. It was bending like a banana trying to get my hub nuts undone!

Have looked at my 3/4 bar bending before and thought it could be worthwhile welding the pivot point up with lashings of weld to make sure it stays put.
