Had a 20 year old torque wrench finally give out on a King Air job last Tuesday

It was an old click type Snap On, and the head just snapped clean off while I was torquing a cylinder base nut. I had to borrow a buddy's digital wrench to finish the job. Anyone have a go to brand for a replacement that won't break the bank?

What about GearWrench? Mine's been solid.

Nah, not for me. Had a ratchet strip out after a few months. Felt cheap in the hand too. You can find way better stuff for the same money. Just my two cents.

GearWrench is good but I've had better luck with Icon. Their ratchets hold up well.
