This is a product for tool aficionados and while it does little more than the Halfords wrench, it’s nicer to use. Nm and lb/ft scales have their own windows, and the adjuster moves freely even at the highest settings. The super-smooth ratchet has 62 positions, allowing steady progress even if you cannot swing the lever far. A well-placed switch means the ratchet can be reversed with a flick of the thumb, and the push-through drive permits anti-clockwise torqueing.
