Torque Wrench Set

[Peskådot671]

If I get a Fix-It-Sticks, should I get the 6-25 Inch/LB or 15-65 Inch/LB model?

Thanks

Most cross bolts for the scope mounts usually require up to 65 inch-lbs so I would go for the 15-65 inch-lbs version so you don't limit yourself. Anything above 65 inch-lbs then you might want to move on to a traditional torque wrench in foot-lbs for more leverage. Anything below 15 inch-lbs, then you might want to get the individual torque limiters from Fix-It-Sticks but that's just my opinion. One of my Nightforce scopes requires a 4 inch-lb limiter to set the zero stop so I picked one up and added it to my kit. One of my only gripes is that the kit doesn't come with all the 1/4" allen hex bit sizes so I added the following; 1.5mm, 2mm, 6mm, 9/64", 7/32", 7/64", and 1/4".

Wera Series 7400 Kraftform pistol handle (05074702001, 3.0-6.0 NM) or (05074712001 (25.0-55.0 in lbs). They are high quality tools and certified for accuracy. There are the torque ratings that I use:

Thanks for the information!

Do the Fix-it-Sticks come with the stanadard sized bits you see on most rings, mounts, and airguns or do y’all use bits from other tool sets?

@Goldwing Thanks. That looks similar to what comes with a Fat Wrench driver. I use bits from another set with it. I’d never heard of this tool set until I read this thread. It looks like it’s built to last.

Got directly from the makers and they beat even Amazon by $12

I know you got what you need, but still adding to the reports…

I have the Wheeler fat wrench and it works great. Glad I have it. 

snyderprecision.com had the best price when I was looking the fixit sticks at $95 shipped. Call and ask them for a forum discount (another forum, not here).
