    Fastener torque is the amount you can stretch a bolt joining an assembly in it's plastic range without going into the deformation range. Tightening a drain plug enough to seat the sealing washer is rarely going to need to go into plastic. Any good mechanic knows how tight is tight. Over tightening with lasting heat can just seize the drain plug.

    I have one of these, it is older than me, m dad and uncle used it on our Farm Implements, and I used it on ALL my Automobiles, and yes, it is still as accurate, or more accurate than the New DIGITAL Torque Wrenches, and competes well with the Click Wrenches…..

    Maybe sometimes the Older tech is actually Superior……

    The Smurfs have asked "do they detect a sight trace of sarcasm" in your comments about K Mart? The only reason they ask is because K Mart is a food supermarket in Holland

    Strange as it may seem, the Beam Torque Wrench is very accurate.

    🤣😂LOL thats friggen funny… A+ trolling skills there Ray… I still got one of those Beam Style Torque Wrench also.. and a craftsmen torque wrench, its a classic now… and a newer one with no name – but its a digital torque wrench. it eats battery's just sitting there though.. I turn it off and it will be quit a while before I use it again, and when I go to grab it the battery's are dead.. Its at least 10 years old now…

    I didn't know Kmart was still in business. Would have been fun to have you manually/arm/hand/torque/click, then check with Kmart torque wrench… 🙂

    Are you saying you don't have various torque wrenches already? Seems like at least 3/8" ft-lbs and 1/4" in. lbs. would be standard in any mechanic's toolbox.

  11. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Radio Rescue says:

    Wow checkout the NOS torque wrench from the 80's ! That's cool!

  12. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars FamilyStimson says:

    I tend to use those over the click click type as often as not. Just a nice simple quick quick and easy. Mine must be getting on for 50 Yr old. Was my grandads a life long truck mechanic

  13. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Marvin Ellis says:

    Feel the BURN ! Thanks for the Videos !

  14. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Kevin Brown says:

    Should have left the packaging stuff hooked to it so you could return it or sell it for future purposes lol click click

  15. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars G Rider says:

    Fuck me, never torqued a sump plug in my life.

  16. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Johnny Sechrist says:

    I have a Western Auto torque wrench just like that…..still works.

  17. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Steven Buchanan says:

    Three months late for the party. The struggle and the sarcasm is real 😂

  18. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Carlos Rodriguez says:

    I still use my grandfather’s vernier caliper. Almost 100 years old. I’ve checked it against a digital micrometer and it’s still dead on. Just gotta know how to read it!

  19. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars F Huber says:

    I use old school "feels right" torque.

    Had someone check me with a torque wrench and I come out +/- 5% of the spec.

  20. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Leonard Altig says:

    Your sarcasm was so thick it was cuttable. Great video

  21. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars crossthread42 says:

    I still got one of those in My Garage, Hinging around, Still in New packageing, from theEarly 70's, SEARS Craftsman

  22. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars JustAnAverageBrad says:

    highly sought after….also works in reverse

  23. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Wills Restorations says:

    Are you kidding, you should be embarrassed to have that talk wrench in your shop

  24. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Peter Bockholm says:

    Is it a hint of sarcasm that I hear? 😂

  25. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars The Moore Clan says:

    i want one

  26. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars wafive says:

    I reckon I saw one of those Torque Wrenches at my local K Mart, on the throwout table in 1986.

  27. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sirk Dopsah says:

    Does that bad boy come with a grease fitting? Life time right there boy.

  28. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars richardcvlr5 says:

    I just 💙 the way you do your videos. 🚗🇺🇸

  29. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David SCHWANDT says:

    There is not a Kmart in my area

  30. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars MakoRey Florida says:

    That looks like a left over from the 80s 😂😂😂😂😂😂

  31. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars James DeArman says:

    y ou have k mart there? – wow – our's closed up years ago.

  32. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars David O'Brien says:

    Ignore all the idiots. I like what you do, you can work on my car any day. You have integrity, much better then loose torque. See what I did there.

  33. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Virgil Newsome says:

    Been years since I saw one of those. 😁 Thanks for the memories and a smile.

  34. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars mario espinoza says:

    Kmart still Exist?

  35. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars mistie710 says:

    What a tool! 🤣

  36. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Lee Swift says:

    How high did your elbow go, mine clicks at 95, my shoulder also clicks at 90. Remember underwear is best at k mart, where's that fine Buick convertible. It sounds like they are jealous of something judging your skills, TOO HELL WITH YOU FOOLS, you can't or don't understand skills.

  37. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars ed jacobs says:

    Had an sk beam torker. Lent it, lost it.

  38. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mummified Gamer says:

    It's funny when youtube 'mechanics' double down on something they don't do properly by saying "I've been doing it like that for 20 years and it worked" Like doing something wrong for 20 years is a thing to be proud of.

    And it's not hand torquing drain plugs, which I also do out of laziness.

  39. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Norm Pettett says:

    The needle is meatier than the wrenches in the 70's when the needle was always bent.

  40. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Peter says:

    Nobody tourques drain plugs. I have an old craftsmen beam scale torque wrench that was my uncle's, come to think of it I believe he bought it to torque the oil drain plug on his 83 Seville that he bought brand new when he retired but I'm not sure, that was a long time ago.

  41. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mark K says:

    OMG lol, I remember my dads high quality torque wrench just like that one. The amount of times my dad had to redo the clutch on his Chevy Chevette using that high quality torque wrench. But he never used it to install plywood on his floor board when that one rain storm blew the drivers side floor board out.

  42. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars martin meaden says:

    The click will do

  43. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mohawk Man says:

    This is why youtube needs a laugh react button, love it!

  44. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars John Chestnut says:

    Funny. Torsion bar style. Points for the name of the clickety style. You can also use the weighted gravity style.

  45. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Rudolf Benner says:

    Great sarcasm.

  46. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Sith Yarael says:

    I have know many mechanics and after about a year or two they give up on the torque wrenches cause they know how it feels. Unless those that say rotate another 180 degrees after you hit torque spec without guessing shit. Hell I have done a lot of AR builds and have only used a torque wrench once on a barrel nut cause my good and tight was always right where it needed to be.

  47. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars Mike Robbins says:

    Thats funny…..

  48. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars A.J. Green says:

    I have a German car. The manual calls out gud-n-tight.

  49. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars D B. A.K.A CORN POP says:

    Where in the hell did you find that classic piece of fine machinery ?? They used to sell out before they could put them on the shelves !!!

  50. Avataaar/Circle Created with python_avatars wayne mg tregear says:

    In all my time I have never used a torque wrench on oil pans plugs cam covers oil drain plugs with any drama. But it is real good idea if you need one.
